Both Nate McMillan and John Collins spoke after the game and both noted that rebounding could be an area of improvement.
At the same time, it’s worth noting this Bucks’ matchup gives them a weird, suboptimal rebounding situation w/Capela guarding the primary ballhandler. – 3:12 PM

Really interesting set from the Hawks with about 3:00 left in 2Q. Trae on ball on right side, DJM pulls out of left corner around Capela screen, immediately reverses for a fake back cut.
Then Trae and Clint run a Spain pick-and-roll with DJM screening the screener. – 1:10 PM

There is a reason the #Bucks are there, after all.
Barring any warmup issues, this afternoon is the day for him to play. – 10:36 AM
