Brandon Miller has been a bit up and down in terms of his production this season and is coming off a down game against a brutally tough Orlando Magic team where he scored just 8 points. Prior to that game he had ripped off 3 straight games of strong scoring with 22, 29, and 19. This matchup against the Bucks who have struggled to defend from the perimeter and midrange sets up well for him.
One wrinkle is that Hornets upgraded Miles Bridges to Questionable for Saturday’s game which was a bit of a surprise considering he was expected to miss another week. Given that, I wouldn’t be shocked to see a minutes limit or some sort of restrictions for him.
While the Bucks have added some stronger perimeter defenders without Dame, I expect them to be deployed on LaMelo moreso than Brandon Miller. I like Miller to exceed 17.5 points and have him closer to 20.
G.Antetokounmpo o6.5 Ast-115
0.87u
Giannis continues to be the engine for this Bucks offense without Damian Lillard and he has now had 7 assists in both games he missed this season.
Now, he gets a matchup against the Hornets who are 20th in Adjusted Defensive Rating. Giannis saw a slight dip in his potentials last game; however, he also scored 59 points so there is some give and take there. The primary takeaway though is that Giannis has seen a sharp uptick in his assist rate without Lillard and over the last two seasons without Lillard he has now exceeded 6.5 dimes in 8/10 games.
This line is a touch low and I’ll grab him to go over 6.5 assists.

Both teams struggle offensively, driven by player absences, inefficiency, and defensive adjustments. Milwaukee leans heavily on Giannis Antetokounmpo with Lillard out but faces challenges against Charlotte’s strong half-court defense. The Hornets excel defensively in half-court settings but lack offensive depth, relying on LaMelo Ball amid turnover issues and limited scoring support.
