Without Giannis Antetokounmpo in Game 5, the Bucks resorted to the limited rotation they used in their series against Brooklyn. Brook Lopez, Khris Middleton, Bobby Portis and P.J. Tucker played a series-high in minutes. The bigger lineup worked with the shifty Trae Young unavailable for Atlanta. Look for that strategy to continue to work even if Young is available. Grab Milwaukee to finish off the Hawks' improbable postseason run.

Well it's the holiday weekend and while I certainly will be making picks through it, also am not sitting at a computer all day. Thus will go with what I know currently ... I think Trae Young plays. Believe the Hawks held him back in Game 5 knowing they had a home game in the bag and couldn't be eliminated. Giannis isn't playing. There's no freaking way Brook Lopez resembles Shaq again, and Milwaukee is so thin down to essentially seven guys minus the two-time MVP. I almost think the Bucks mail this in as there are reports the Freak could play Game 7. The home team has come out red hot in the past two games and never looked back. It happens again.

Even with the Hawks facing elimination, we might not see Trae Young (foot) for this game. The Bucks will also likely be without Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee), who is listed as doubtful. The Bucks won with both players out in Game 5 in Milwaukee. With Young out and Giannis getting hurt in Game 4 in Atlanta, the Hawks won by 22 points. Home court advantage should continue to be significant with both stars injured, so I’ll give the Hawks the advantage here.
