There are six games on the NBA schedule for Wednesday, including the Atlanta Hawks vs Milwaukee Bucks matchup. The Hawks are looking to extend their winning streak to five, while the Bucks have won seven on the trot.

Meanwhile, the Bucks have shaken off their poor start to the season by winning their last seven games and nine of the last 10. Giannis Antetokounmpo is playing like an MVP as Milwaukee continues to ascend the Eastern Conference standings.

Wednesday's game will be the 237th regular-season game between the Hawks and Bucks. Their last 10 meetings have been even, with five wins each, since Nov 14, 2021. The Bucks are marginally ahead, 119-117, in their all-time head-to-head matchup.
