Milwaukee Bucks vs Golden State Warriors prediction
The Milwaukee Bucks in the underdog role is attractive when you consider this winning stretch they're enjoying, but the way the line has shifted toward the Warriors tells me they're going to be down key players. We know Middleton isn't going to play, but there's a good chance Antetokounmpo doesn't play either. If that's the case, the Warriors should win this game at home and simply can't afford to blow this game. Te Warriors have covered 7 of their last 10 games. If the Bucks are down Antetokounmpo, I'm laying the chalk with the Warriors.
