Boston Celtics vs Milwaukee Bucks prediction

The Boston Celtics are on the end of a back to back, but I’m not sure if it matters much here. The Milwaukee Bucks are just not a team I’m eager to back in the favorite role due to their lack of defense, and now they’re starting to lose games because of it. The Bucks are 15-21-1 ATS on the season. The Boston Celtics have also won 5 of the last 6 meetings against the Bucks. You’re not going to get the Celtics in these spots often for the rest of the season. Take advantage while you can. Give me the Celtics and the free buckets.
