The Milwaukee Bucks’ opponent in the 2024 NBA Cup semifinals has finally been revealed. This comes after the Atlanta Hawks stunned the New York Knicks at Madison Square Garden on Wednesday night by a score of 108-100.
The Bucks already made it in the quarterfinals on Tuesday, defeating the Orlando Magic at Fiserv Forum 114-109 and advancing to the semifinals.
To defeat the Knicks, the Hawks relied on great performances from De’Andre Hunter, Trae Young and Jalen Johnson. Hunter came off the bench to score 24 points to lead all Atlanta scorers, while Young and Johnson added 22 and 21 points, respectively.
Now they will be on a mission to beat the Bucks on Saturday in Las Vegas. This will be the second meeting of the 2024-25 NBA season between the Bucks and Hawks, who first met on December 4 at Fiserv Forum. Atlanta won this game 119-104, thanks in huge part to Johnson’s 23 points and Hunter’s 20 points. Meanwhile, Young had 17 points in the victory over Milwaukee.
The Milwaukee Bucks are doing well in the 2024 NBA Cup semifinals
However, the Bucks have been outstanding in their last two games, with Giannis Antetokounmpo leading the way. In the victory over Orlando, the two-time NBA Most Valuable Player scored a total of 37 points, hitting 15 of 24 field goals. Antetokounmpo had 31 points and 11 rebounds in a loss to Atlanta earlier this month.
The winner of the Bucks and Hawks matchup will advance to the 2024 NBA Cup Finals along with the winner of the other semifinal matchup between the Oklahoma City Thunder and Houston Rockets.
