The Milwaukee Bucks visit the Memphis Grizzlies on Thursday in their last outing before the NBA All-Star break. Bucks enter this game after a heavy defeat by the Denver Nuggets at home (97: 128). The Bucks have a series of 8 games in front of the home crowd at the Fisher Forum, and this will be their first away game in 20 days. Antetokounmpo scored 27 points on 10-of-15 shooting his last time out, but was one of only three Bucks to score in double figures in a 128-97 loss to Denver on Tuesday. The blowout defeat snapped a five-game winning streak, which solidified Milwaukee in third place of the Eastern Conference after it endured a five-game losing streak before that stretch.
On the other side, Memphis is shooting 35.9 percent from 3-point range, but they will be without two solid 3pt shooters- Grayson Allen and Kyle Anderson. The duo, two of the Grizzlies' best outside shooters on the year at 39 and 40.7 percent, were sidelined due to concussion protocol and an illness, respectively. Milwaukee has a deeper roster and the bench will take a W this game. BUCKS WILL COVER THE SPREAD!
