Milwaukee Bucks Form


Milwaukee are looking to make it back-to-back wins and maintain their solid March form.

The Bucks are 10-3 in the month so far, and they have been decent on their travels, winning five of their eight road games.

They started this three-game roadtrip with a 127-102 blowout defeat in Memphis last Saturday night.

Milwaukee rebounded on Tuesday though, keeping themselves firmly in the mix for the number one seeding in the Eastern Conference.

The Bucks ran out 118-116 winners in Philadelphia to stay ahead of the 76ers in the race.

Giannis Antetokounmpo produced a dominant display as he poured in 40 points and racked up 14 rebounds.

Khris Middleton had 22 points, nine rebounds and seven assists, while Jrue Holiday put up 18 points, 10 assists and eight rebounds in a double double.

Brooklyn Nets Form


Brooklyn are in ‘must-win’ mode as they try to avoid a play-in to make this season’s playoffs.

They have been in patchy form as of late, winning four of their last seven games, but they did receive a big boost last week.

The ban on non-vaccinated players in New York has been lifted, and that means Kyrie Irving can now play in the Nets’ remaining home games.

Irving made his home bow against Charlotte on Sunday but was unable to help Brooklyn avoid a 119-110 defeat.

Brooklyn rebounded on Tuesday night though, downing Detroit 130-123 at the Barclays Center.

Kevin Durant was the star of the show with 41 points, 11 rebounds and five assists in the win.

Irving contributed 24 points, while Andre Drummond registered a double double with 14 points and 13 rebounds.

Verdict


Brooklyn have Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant for this one, but Milwaukee are backed here.

The Bucks have been strong since the All-Star break and Giannis has been dominating.

Spread – Milwaukee +1.5 @ -110
Moneyline – Milwaukee Bucks @ +100
