Philadelphia 76ers vs Milwaukee Bucks – Game Prediction

In an attempt to put an end to the negative energy, the Milwaukee Bucks will go east. Philadelphia is the first stop, where they will play the 76ers. The Bucks didn’t have Giannis at the time and won’t have him now. They even lost the game before on December 5. Meanwhile, Philadelphia has a 2-0 season series advantage, with both victories coming away from home. On November 20, the Sixers prevailed 123-114 in overtime in their first encounter. 31 of Tyrese Maxey’s career-high 54 points came after halftime. Paul George scored the Sixers’ first 11 points of the game and finished with 21 points in 25 minutes. The 76ers have won both of their meetings this season, but the Bucks lead the series all-time 125-107. Now, they seem ready for each other.
