Our Predictions: Milwaukee Bucks to Win
The Milwaukee Bucks are coming off a loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers. Meanwhile, the Utah Jazz secured their first win of the season by defeating the Chicago Bulls on Monday. Despite this, neither team is in good form, but the number of superstars on the Wisconsin team and home-court advantage give them an edge. Therefore, the prediction is a win for the Bucks.
The defenses of both teams are in disarray, and if their offenses are even slightly on point, we should see a high-scoring game. After all, the Milwaukee Bucks have had two good offensive performances against the Cavs, and the Utah Jazz put on a great show without their main player, Lauri Markkanen. Thus, the betting suggestion is on the over market for points.
