Los Angeles Clippers vs Milwaukee Bucks prediction

The Milwaukee Bucks are playing some of their best ball of the season during this winning streak, but let’s pump the brakes just a second. Wins over the Hornets, Bulls and a 76ers team without Embiid don’t quite move the needle. Yes, the Bucks are at home where they’re 24-7 SU, and they have the rest advantage with the Clippers playing last night. Still, I believe the Clippers are the better, more balanced team and I see value with them and the free points whenever I can get them. Also, Middleton is still out for the Bucks and Antetokounmpo was questionable at the time of this writing. Give me the Clippers and the free points.
