The Wizards are 8-20-1 ATS in their last 29 road games and 17-36-2 ATS in their last 55 games overall. The Bucks are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 home games and 7-2 ATS in their last 9 games overall. The over is 9-2 in Wizards last 11 overall. The over is 13-6 in Bucks last 19 overall. The over is 8-2 in the last 10 meetings.

The Washington Wizards don't cover numbers on the road, they're not playing a lick of defense right now, and they're losing their last five games by an average nine points. The Milwaukee Bucks are playing some of their best ball of the season with an offense that's shooting 48.9 percent from the field and 41.1 percent from three in their last five games. Big line that opens the door for a backdoor cover, but this game has the potential to get ugly nonetheless. Give me the Bucks in a beat down victory.
