The Milwaukee Bucks appear to be peaking at the right time as they beat the Atlanta Hawks on Wednesday 124-115.

The Bucks built their lead in the first quarter, outscoring the Hawks 37-26 in the opening frame. The Hawks were able to cut the lead to just a couple of possessions late in the game, but the Bucks were able to cut off the surge and hold on to win their sixth straight game. Giannis Antetokounmpo led the Bucks with 43 points, continuing his post-All Star break surge as he has averaged over 31 points and 13 rebounds in the stretch. Khris Middleton and Bobby Portis also chipped in 23 points in the win. Trae Young led the way for the Hawks with 27 points. 

The Bucks hit the road Saturday to face the Golden State Warriors.
