The Atlanta Hawks will be counting on power forward John Collins to give them a chance to keep advancing in the N-B-A playoffs.
Collins combines size, strength and athleticism – and at six-foot-nine and 235 pounds, it will be his job to slow down two-time M-V-P Giannis Antetokounmpo.
The Hawks and Milwaukee Bucks will meet in the Eastern Conference finals starting Wednesday at the Fiserv Forum.
Milwaukee won two of the three meetings during the regular season, with Antetokounmpo averaging 24 points and 11 rebounds.
The Bucks are seven-point favorites in the opener and are the choice of bettors to win the series.
