The Milwaukee Bucks are going to get the benefit of the doubt at home, and they’re having a solid week. However, the Phoenix Suns have been the best team in the league all season, and you almost never get them in the underdog role. This will be just the eighth time this season the Suns are an underdog. Let’s also not act like the Bucks haven’t been hit or miss this season, especially as of late. Give me the Suns and the free buckets.
