I’m not running to the window to back either of these teams given the injury situation. The 76ers are without a lot of key players and are on the end of a back to back. The Bucks are still without Middleton, Lopez and DiVincenzo. This feels like capping a preseason game. If forced to pick, give me the 76ers and the free points because of home court.
