Here's everything you need to know about Bucks vs. Spurs, including our prediction and picks.
This is matchup between teams on completely opposite sides of the spectrum. The Milwaukee Bucks and San Antonio Spurs match up for the second time this season, so let's get to our Bucks vs. Spurs prediction.
Bucks vs. Spurs Picks
Pick: Bucks -9, Under 249.5
The Bucks are looking to get back on the winning track after dropping their first game of 2024 to the Indiana Pacers. However, Milwaukee will still be without Jae Crowder, who has been out since November 11 with a groin injury.
Milwaukee is 8-2 in its past 10 games and needs to keep winning to keep pace with the Boston Celtics as each side wants the top seed in the Eastern Conference.
Milwaukee, the second-best scoring team in the league, travels to San Antonio for the second game of a back-to-back, though the Bucks are 3-1 this season in the backend of back-to-back sets.
The Spurs are 5-28, though rookie Victor Wembanyama is leading all rookies with 18.9 points and 10.2 rebounds per game. However, since tweaking his ankle on December 23, the Spurs have said his availability could be limited in back to backs. So, be on the lookout for an updated report on his status prior to tonight’s game.
In the past five games, the Spurs are:
- 1-4 overall
- 2-3 against the spread
- 2-3 to the over
Additionally, the Spurs give up 122.8 points per game, are 2-14 at home and riding a three-game losing streak.
