Game Preview
In a contest with significant postseason ramifications as these clubs compete for the top seed in the East, the Milwaukee Bucks host the Boston Celtics. On Tuesday night, Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Milwaukee Bucks will try to extend their 11-game winning run, which is the longest active stretch in the NBA. Boston is coming in at 41-16 overall and 18-9 on the road, while Milwaukee is 39-17 overall and 23-5 at home.
In 57 games played, the Celtics presently have the best record, and this season, Joe Mazzulla’s team has two All-Stars in the Jay duo. Averaging 30.5 points, 8.6 rebounds, 4.5 assists, 1.1 steals, and a 46-35-86 shooting percentage, Jayson Tatum is producing MVP numbers. Similarly, Jaylen Brown has averaged 26.5 points, 7.0 rebounds, 3.2 assists, and 1.1 steals.
The Celtics, unfortunately, are in a terrible position right now. Jaylen Brown, Marcus Smart, and Danilo Gallinari won’t be available. They also classified Jayson Tatum as doubtful. As a result, Derrick White, Sam Hauser, Grant Williams, Al Horford, and Robert Williams are expected to start for Boston. Nevertheless, it will be difficult for this team to succeed without Brown and Tatum.
Let’s check the latest picks, NBA news, stats and NBA expert picks for Celtics vs Bucks. We’ve plenty of NBA predictions for you to consider.
Milwaukee has had trouble staying healthy this season, but they still have the fifth-best Point Differential in the league. Their offensive troubles have mainly been offset by their top-notch defense. For the offense to improve, Khris Middleton’s return was crucial. With Antetokounmpo, Middleton, and Jrue Holiday in their lines, the Bucks are +6.7 and average 122.2 points per 100 possessions.
Jae Crowder and Bobby Portis are out going into this game, but Pat Connaughton and Antetokounmpo are expected to suit up despite their dubious health. Brown and Smart’s absences from this game could benefit Milwaukee. Holiday, Allen, Carter, and Ingles should take advantage of Boston’s lack of guards by using set-ups that will allow them to shoot from a distance.
