The Milwaukee Bucks have been a trainwreck without Giannis Antetokounmpo this season, so there\u2019s not much reason for optimism as they take on the Philadelphia 76ers tonight.<\/p>\n
The Greek Freak is expected to miss at least a month with his latest calf injury, and my Bucks vs 76ers predictions expect Tyrese Maxey & Co. to show no mercy at Xfinity Mobile Arena.<\/p>\n

Get the latest on this Tuesday, January 27 matchup with my free NBA picks<\/a>.<\/p>\n Bucks vs 76ers prediction<\/p>\n Bucks vs 76ers best bet: Tyrese Maxey Over 27.5 points (-120)<\/p>\n With Joel Embiid and Paul George<\/a> in and out of the Philadelphia 76ers<\/a> lineup, at least Nick Nurse can count on Tyrese Maxey<\/a> to be ready to roll. Though the heavy minutes seemed to catch up with Maxey in yesterday’s blowout loss in Charlotte, I\u2019m picking him to bounce back against the flailing Milwaukee Bucks<\/a>.<\/p>\n He dropped 54 points on Milwaukee back in November, and I like his chances of nailing this Over, with no Giannis to worry about as a rim deterrent.<\/p>\n Advertisement<\/p>\n Despite cooling off a little, Maxey is still averaging 29.4 PPG, sixth-most in the NBA, and Philadelphia may again be missing Embiid, who\u2019s listed as questionable.<\/p>\n Don\u2019t count on Maxey getting many breaks tonight, either. He leads the league with 39.2 MPG, and he\u2019s averaging 20.8 shots per game this month.<\/p>\n With George set to return and pick up some of the playmaking responsibilities, Maxey should have a little more breathing room to get to his spots, and there are enough minus defenders for him to target on switches.<\/p>\n There\u2019s a growing sense that Giannis may have played his last game for the Bucks, and I don\u2019t see the rest of this roster putting up much of a fight. That\u2019s a recipe for some Maxey fireworks.<\/p>\n Advertisement<\/p>\n Bucks vs 76ers same-game parlay<\/p>\n No one expected Ryan Rollins<\/a> to be shouldering this kind of scoring burden for the Bucks, and I\u2019m fading his 3-point makes tonight. Though Rollins drilled four triples on Friday against the Nuggets, he had finished with two or fewer threes in his eight prior contests.<\/p>\n I\u2019ll round out my SGP with the Under, which has been a winning ticket in five of the Bucks\u2019 past seven contests. Without Giannis to spark the offense, it could be a long night for the visitors. Meanwhile, the Under is 4-2 in Philly\u2019s last six outings.<\/p>\n Bucks vs 76ers SGP<\/p>\n Tyrese Maxey Over 27.5 points<\/p>\n Ryan Rollins Under 2.5 made threes<\/p>\n Our “from downtown” SGP: Bob’s Your Uncle<\/p>\n Someone has to soak up extra shots in this Milwaukee lineup, and Bobby Portis<\/a> won\u2019t be shy about throwing his hat into the ring. He\u2019s knocked down three 3-pointers in three of his past four games, and he scored 19 points last week against the Hawks.<\/p>\n Advertisement<\/p>\n Bucks vs 76ers SGP<\/p>\n Tyrese Maxey Over 27.5 points<\/p>\n Ryan Rollins Under 2.5 made threes<\/p>\n Bobby Portis Over 16.5 points<\/p>\n Bucks vs 76ers odds<\/p>\n Spread: Bucks +10 (-110) | 76ers -10 (-110)<\/p>\n Moneyline: Bucks +325 | 76ers -425<\/p>\n Over\/Under: Over 219 (-110) | Under 219 (-110)<\/p>\n Bucks vs 76ers betting trend to know<\/p>\n The Bucks are 1-6 ATS in their last seven games.
