Charlotte Hornets vs Milwaukee Bucks Prediction
The Hornets beat the Bucks a couple of days ago, but a blind squirrel stumbles upon a nut at some point. The Hornets are not a good team and are too banged up to take seriously. The Bucks should have revenge on their mind and this is an NBA Cup game, so you know what sort of Antetokounmpo you’re going to get. It’s a thick number and the underdog has covered 6 of the last 10 games between the Hornets and Bucks, but the revenge factor and Charlottes injury situation is real. This game shouldn’t be close. Give me the Bucks in a home beat down.
