The Milwaukee Bucks pay a visit to the Detroit Pistons at Little Caesars Arena on Wednesday night.

The Milwaukee Bucks have been in fine form lately as they’ve won five of their last six games and they will be aiming for a third straight victory after blowing past the Magic in a 121-99 road win on Monday. Giannis Antetokounmpo led the team with 22 points on eight of 16 shooting, Khris Middleton and Bobby Portis each scored 20 points while Bryn Forbes chipped in with 14 points off the bench. As a team, the Bucks shot 50 percent from the field and 13 of 35 from the 3-point line as they took control with 38 points in the second quarter, before outscoring the Magic by 35-17 in the fourth quarter to make it a complete blowout.

Meanwhile, the Detroit Pistons have really been doing it tough so far as they’ve won just two of their 10 games and they will be hoping to bounce back after falling to the Jazz in a 96-86 loss on Sunday. Jerami Grant led the team with 28 points on nine of 19 shooting, Saddiq Bey scored 12 points off the bench while Blake Griffin chipped in with 10 points, but no other player finished in double figures. As a team, the Pistons shot just 33 percent from the field and 10 of 42 from the 3-point line as they rallied late in the third quarter to cut a 20-point deficit to just six points, only to fall short as they scored just 18 points in the fourth quarter.
