The Eastern Conference Finals is becoming an intense affair with the matches between Milwaukee Bucks and Atlanta Hawks. After Milwaukee’s raging effort to take away Game 5, the series stands 3-2 in their favor.

Injuries have hit hard in this series and it’s been tough for the two team’s star players. Trae Young is out with a bone bruise on his right foot from the last two games. And, Bucks’ Giannis Antetokounmpo recently hyper-extended his left knee that forcefully benched him in Game 5.

Well, despite the Greek Freak’s absence within the lines, Bucks gave a powerful performance last match to grab a lead in the series. Their prominent center Brook Lopez (33 points and 7 rebounds) took the job in his hands and led his team to a 123-112 victory over the Hawks.

The Hawks, without their key player Trae Young, were shaky in their game plan. Their newfound superstar is missed on the court in every essence. Against a team as talented as Milwaukee Bucks, the Hawks will need more players to step up other than Bogdan Bogdanovic. And if not, then Bucks are just a win away from the 2021 NBA Finals.
