The Milwaukee Bucks edged the Atlanta Hawks 112–110 on January 19 at State Farm Arena in a defensive battle that finished just below the 232.5-point Vegas total. N. Alexander-Walker led the Hawks with 32 points while J. Johnson added 28, but Atlanta's 40.6 percent field-goal shooting and 113.1 defensive rating proved costly down the stretch. The Bucks countered with balanced scoring—G. Antetokounmpo posted 21 points and B. Portis contributed 19—while Milwaukee's superior efficiency (49.4 FG%, 113.1 offensive rating) made the difference. The visitors' 16 three-pointers compared to Atlanta's 12 underscored their perimeter advantage, and despite committing 13 turnovers to the Hawks' 10, the Bucks' bench depth and shot-making sealed a two-point victory. Milwaukee's second-quarter explosion (34 points) set the tone, though Atlanta nearly clawed back with a 38-point fourth quarter. The road win strengthens Milwaukee's playoff positioning in a tight Eastern Conference race.
