Milwaukee Bucks vs Chicago Bulls Prediction
The Milwaukee Bucks have shown signs of getting their act together, but they haven’t reached the point where I’m comfortable laying big chalk. Antetokounmpo and Lillard have to play at the top of their game and even then the Bucks have a lot of games come down to the wire. The Chicago Bulls have been better than expected, and they already beat the Bucks this season. The Bulls have covered 4 of their last 6 games. I’ll take a stab at the points.
