Milwaukee Bucks vs Atlanta Hawks: Injury Report, Predicted Lineups and Starting 5s - November 14th, 2021 | NBA Season 2021-22

The Atlanta Hawks will host the defending champions Milwaukee Bucks at State Farm Arena for an enticing 2021-22 NBA season game on Sunday.

The Bucks are coming off a 122-113 overtime loss against the Boston Celtics. Bobby Portis (22 points) and Grayson Allen (21 points) led the charge for the side in the absence of Giannis Antokounmpo. Milwaukee did well to make a comeback late in the game but ran out of steam in the dying moments of the contest during OT.

Meanwhile, the Hawks have been in terrible form since the start of the campaign and are currently on a six-game skid. The Denver Nuggets handed them a 105-96 loss in their previous outing. Trae Young (30 points) and John Collins (26 points) put in impressive showings but it wasn't enough as the rest of the squad struggled to deliver the goods.
