Milwaukee vs Oakland PredictionÂ
Oakland comes into this matchup after losing to Wright State at home in their last game and they will be on the road here. The Golden Grizzlies are shooting 47% from the field and they have scored at least 84 points in five straight games. Milwaukee has lost four of their last five games and they have allowed 79+ in four of their last five. The Panthers are shooting 45% from the field, but I don’t think they can keep pace with this high scoring Oakland offense. Take the Golden Grizzlies here.Â
