After a dominant performance in Sunday’s 118-93 victory versus the Oklahoma City Thunder, the Milwaukee Bucks will have an opportunity to build their momentum tonight as the Los Angeles Lakers travel to Fiserv Forum. The last time these two teams faced off was earlier this month, where the Lakers were able to close out Milwaukee on their home floor.
Injury designations for the Bucks include Khris Middleton (ankle) and Giannis Antetokounmpo (hamstring). Both are listed as probable and will likely suit up in tonight’s game. For Los Angeles, Jarred Vanderbilt and Gabe Vincent have been ruled out for the contest. LeBron James and Anthony Davis are listed as game-time decisions, but James is trending towards staying on the sidelines and Davis is probable to suit up.

The spread for tonight’s contest is set at 7.5 points in favor of the Bucks, who will be on their home floor this time around. The Bucks are a dominant team at Fiserv Forum, achieving a record of 29-7 so far this season. However, they have not had the same success covering the spread going 32-39 in that category. The Lakers have the exact same record as Milwaukee against the spread and have gone 12-20 on the road.
The total points line is set at 233.5. In the last matchup earlier this month, there were over 140 total points scored and both teams shot over 39 percent from behind the arc. Milwaukee is the third highest scoring team in the NBA averaging 120.6 points per game. Los Angeles isn’t too far behind in terms of points per game, but are averaging 129 points in their last 3 contests. There is value in tonight’s game going over the total points line of 233.5.

After being in and out of the lineup this month with an ankle injury, Khris Middleton returned to action on Sunday versus Oklahoma City and dropped a triple-double with 11 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists. He has hit his combined points and assists line in the past 6 matchups versus Los Angeles in his career and the Lakers have given up an average of 22 points and 4.5 assists to small forwards this season. Middleton is favored to hit this line once again tonight.
Anthony Davis Over 37.5 Points + Rebounds (-130 on DraftKings Sportsbook)

Anthony Davis, who is coming off a dominant outing versus the Indiana Pacers has value to repeat that performance once again tonight. Davis dropped 36 points and 16 rebounds on Sunday and has hit this line in 2 of the past 3 games. The one game he missed this line, he ended with 37 total points and rebounds. With LeBron James likely to sit out another game, expect Davis to take over as the primary scoring option.
Giannis Antetokounmpo Over 18.5 Rebounds + Assists (+100 on FanDuel Sportsbook)

Giannis Antetokounmpo is also coming off a productive Sunday putting up 30 points, 19 rebounds and 4 assists versus Oklahoma City. In the last game versus Los Angeles, he soared over this line combining for 26 rebounds and assists. There is value in Antetokounmpo to once again go over his set line of 18.5. Coverage for tonight’s showdown will take place at 7:30 PM Eastern time on TNT.
