Pacers at Bucks picks and predictionsPrediction

Bucks 114, Pacers 103

PASS.

There is little value on the Bucks (-285) to handle a Pacers (+235) team that has dropped 12 in a row.

BET BUCKS -7.5 (-110).

The Pacers have failed to cover the spread in 11 of their last 12 games. Eight of their last 9 losses have come by 9 or more points. With the status of many of their players uncertain, it’s unlikely the team keeps the game within reach.

The Bucks have not played well recently either, especially without Antetokounmpo, but they have played their best basketball at home, giving them an advantage in this contest.

BET UNDER 228.5 (-105).

Both teams have struggled to score, while also struggling to limit points. The trends lean toward the Under.

The Pacers have scored 111 or fewer points 4 straight games and in 7 of their last 8. With their top scorers all sidelined, they have struggled offensively. Their season average of 111.0 points per game is fourth-worst in the league, but the Bucks are even worse at 110.8 PPG.

Milwaukee has scored 105 or fewer points in 3 of its last 4 and 114 or fewer in 9 straight. They have hit the Under in 3 of their last 5.
