Atlanta's seven-game win streak came to an end Friday night with a two-point loss to the Celtics, but Mike Budenholzer's team bounced back with a 111-98 victory over the Bucks on Sunday. The Hawks may not have been able to slow down Giannis Antetokounmpo, who finished with 33 points, eight rebounds, six assists and three blocks, but they shut down everyone else. While Antetokounmpo shot 13-for-22 form the field, his teammates shot 22-for-57 (45.6 percent) and that wasn't enough to overcome Atlanta's balanced offense. Five Hawks scored in double figures, including new addition Mike Dunleavy as he scored 20 points off the bench. When the Hawks traded Kyle Korver, it appeared as if they were preparing for a major rebuild that would result in them falling down the standings in the East. But that hasn't been the case. (Getty)
