The Bucks will be without Kevin Porter Jr. due to an ankle injury. Kyle Kuzma and Cole Anthony are questionable.

The Knicks will be without Mitchell Robinson. Karl-Anthony Towns, Guerschon Yabusele, and Miles McBride are questionable.

New York Knicks vs Milwaukee Bucks Prediction


The Knicks have won 5 straight games against the Bucks, so they’re worth a look in this spot. However, the Knicks struggled defensively in their first road game, and they’re banged up still. The Bucks are off to a decent start through 3 games, and that includes giving the Cavs a scare on the road. At home, I like the Bucks and this up-tempo offense to have success against the Knicks, similar to how Miami did. I’ll lean Bucks in this toss up spot.

Randy Chambers's Pick: Milwaukee Bucks +1.5
