To get there they defeated the Atlanta Hawks 4-2 in the best-of-seven Eastern Conference Finals series. Despite not having star Giannis Antetokounmpo for the last two games due to a hyperextended left knee, the Milwaukee Bucks were able to get it done on the road Saturday, July 3, 2021. Khris Middleton led all scorers with 32 points. Jrue Holiday had a near-triple-double with 27 points, 9 rebounds and 9 assists. The Bucks played their first final game against the Phoenix Suns on Tuesday, July 6, 2021 and lost 105 to 118. However there are still more games to play.
