NBA Betting Trends
Milwaukee
The Bucks are 4-1 ATS in their last five games overall. Milwaukee is 2-5-1 ATS in its last eight games versus the Pacific Division.
Los Angeles
The Clippers are 2-6 ATS in their last eight games following a straight up win. The underdog is 4-1-1 ATS in the last six meetings.
Prediction:
Milwaukee gets the benefit of not seeing Leonard, but the Clippers are still a deep team and has not lost at home yet. The Bucks have played down to their competition a couple times this season and if someone like Williams gets hot for LA tonight, it could be a very interesting game. I’m not ready to give Milwaukee that many points as LA wants to prove it can win a big game even without its top two players on the floor.
