Milwaukee Bucks at Memphis Grizzlies Prediction
Both the Milwaukee Bucks and Miami Heat feature on Saturday’s NBA betting card, so depending on what happens in their respective matchups, the Eastern Conference standings could be shaken up significantly.
The Bucks will be incentivised to clinch the win on the road. A lot depends on the availability of Giannis Antetokounmpo and Khris Middleton, both of which were sidelined in Milwaukee’s last outing. Should one or both get the nod, Milwaukee’s odds will improve substantially.
The Memphis Grizzlies are a tough nut to crack. They haven’t lost at home in over a month and they’re riding a six-game winning streak at the FedEx Forum. They also have the confidence of beating Milwaukee earlier this season. That said, with a playoff spot now secured, their intensity might be somewhat diminished for this game.
By all accounts, it’s a right tossup for NBA picks. The Memphis Grizzlies should win at home, but the Milwaukee Bucks could win on the road. Either outcome won’t be surprising in the least.
