Nets vs. Bucks Pick
Nets vs. Bucks Spread Pick
- Bucks -9.5 (4 units)
Brooklyn has been dismal offensively all season, and the fact that Porter Jr. could be missing here would be a massive blow for them. Thomas is already missing, and that could mean that the top two scoring options for the Nets wouldn’t take the floor here. Milwaukee hasn’t been great in the second game of back-to-back situations and it will be interesting to see if Antetokounmpo plays both ends of the back-to-back set or not. Milwaukee is getting healthier, and they are a very good team when it comes to shooting the ball. The Bucks pick up the home win here as they deal the Nets another defeat.
Nets vs. Bucks Over/Under Pick
- Under 224 (4 units)
Brooklyn has struggled to slow opposing teams so far as they have surrendered at least 125 points on seven separate occasions already this season. By comparison, they have held only four foes under 110 points, with none scoring fewer than 103. The Nets are 30th in scoring offense, 24th in offensive efficiency and 27th in tempo with 97.5 possessions a night. Brooklyn has seen the over post an 8-7 mark in their 15 games on the year. Milwaukee has seen the over post a 10-9 mark in their first 19 games this season, entering Friday night. The Bucks are 19th in the league in scoring offense, 21st in offensive efficiency and 17th in adjusted tempo with an average of 100 possessions a night this season. With both teams playing the second game of a back-to-back here, look for this game to wind up short of the number.
