Where to Watch: NBA League Pass

The Atlanta Hawks (23-28) are set to host the Milwaukee Bucks (27-22) on February 7, 2025, at State Farm Arena in Atlanta. The Hawks, currently ninth in the Eastern Conference, are coming off a narrow loss to the San Antonio Spurs. In contrast, the Bucks, positioned fifth in the East, recently snapped a four-game losing streak with a victory over the Charlotte Hornets. 

Offensively, the Hawks average 116.1 points per game, ranking ninth in the NBA, but they struggle defensively, conceding 119.2 points per game, which is among the league's worst. The Bucks score 114.2 points per game (12th in the league) and allow 112.6 points per game.

This game marks the third meeting between these teams this season, with each team having secured one win apiece in their previous encounters.

 

Giannis Antetokoumpo Over 32.5 Points

Giannis Antetokounmpo has been a dominant scorer for the Milwaukee Bucks during this NBA season. He’s averaging 31.8 points per game, which ranks him second in the league. His scoring efficiency is highlighted by a field goal percentage of 60.8%, placing him eighth in the league. In a notable performance on January 31, 2025, Antetokounmpo scored 35 points against the San Antonio Spurs.

Giannis will be returning back to action after missing two games due to injury. A rested Giannis is a dangerous Giannis and I understand this line is very high but he's been able to hit on this over game after game all season long. He has a favorable matchup going against the Atlanta Hawks who don't play a lick of defense and also play at a fast pace. This sets up perfectly for Giannis to have a monster game scoring the ball. 

Damian Lillard Over 3.5 Three Pointers

Damian Lillard has been a significant contributor to the Milwaukee Bucks' offense during this NBA season. He has played in 41 games, averaging 25.1 points, 7.4 assists, and 4.6 rebounds per game. His three-point shooting has been a notable aspect of his performance, with an average of 3.4 made three-pointers per game on 8.9 attempts, resulting in a 37.9% success rate from beyond the arc.

Damian Lillard has failed to score more than 3 three-pointers in his last four games but this is a perfect spot for him to bounce back. The Bucks sent away Kris Middleton to the Washington Wizards so they'll need Lillard to step up in a big way from three to take care of that missing production. Lillard has a favorable matchup going against the Hawks who have been terrible at stopping the deep ball. They allow 14.3 3-pointers per game to opposing teams which is the fourth most in the whole league. 

Onyeka Okongwu Over 9.5 Rebounds

Onyeka Okongwu has been a consistent presence on the boards for the Atlanta Hawks during this season. He’s averaging 7.8 rebounds per game, which ranks him 29th in the league. He’s been good at rebounding on both the offensive and defensive side of the ball. In a standout performance on February 5, 2025, Okongwu recorded a double-double with 30 points and 12 rebounds, along with five assists and one block, in 31 minutes during a narrow 126-125 loss to the San Antonio Spurs.

Okongwu has cleared this line of 9.5 rebounds with ease in two of his last three games. With the Hawks getting rid of DeAndre Hunter it will create even more opportunities for Okongwu to collect boards. In what should be a fast-paced high-scoring game expect plenty of shot attempts for both teams which is great for this bet. Milwaukee gives up 52.9 rebounds per game to opposing teams which is well above the league average. I don't see a world where Okongwu doesn't get at least 10 rebounds in this game.
