Bucks vs Nuggets Predictions

The Milwaukee Bucks vs Denver Nuggets face off in an inter-conference matchup that is sure to be extremely electric. These teams don’t get to see each other very often and there is a ton of superstar firepower to be seen on both sides. Let’s dive right into the NBA picks and how this game will go down and who will end up covering the spread.

This game will take place at 9:30 PM ET on NBATV

Why bet the Nuggets:

✅ The Bucks struggle big time in the paint, ranking 28th in the NBA to opposing centers. Nikola Jokic is the best center in basketball and he’s going to take advantage of a team that doesn’t see him very often. He just put up 50 points and is playing better than he ever has before.

✅ These are two very similar teams statistically, with both playing extremely fast and efficient. With that said, the Nuggets are the team I trust more down the wire. The Bucks rank 27th in FT% at just 72.7%, compared to 77% for the Denver Nuggets. Everyone on the court for Denver can hit from the line, which is comfortable to know.

✅ The Nuggets are starting to play a lot more like the team we’ve become accustomed to. With Jokic in the middle, Milwaukee will be focused on not allowing him to kill them alone, which he won’t. Jokic is more than willing to spread it around and let his team do the scoring.

✅ Nuggets are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games following a ATS loss.

✅ Bucks are 3-7 ATS in their last 10 Monday games.

The Milwaukee Bucks and Denver Nuggets have an illustrious past, though they’ve met just under 100 times all-time. The Nuggets hold a distinct all-time advantage, winning well over 60% of the matchups. It makes sense as the Bucks were a bottom of the barrel for a lot of the past 20 years.

That is no longer the case and either team can win this game. These two teams both have championship aspirations and it will be interesting to see who end up prevailing. Let’s dive into how this one will go down and who will end up covering the spread.
