It was also the Hawks' first win since trading De’Andre Hunter to the Cleveland Cavaliers as well as giving Bogdan Bogdanovic to the Los Angeles Clippers at the trade deadline, improving to 24-28 overall.
Meanwhile, Bobby Portis (26 points, 15 rebounds) and Damian Lillard (23 points, 10 assists) paced the Bucks with respective double-double outings while Kuzma came off the bench and finished with 12 markers. Antetokounmpo was out again due to a left calf tightness.
Kuzma drains it from deep.
