The Portland Trail Blazers and the Milwaukee Bucks do battle at the Fiserv Forum on Monday night. Here’s a Bucks vs Trail Blazers Prediction. This article will include a Bucks vs Trail Blazers Pick.
Portland Trail Blazers Betting Preview
The Portland Trail Blazers have been in a rut as they’ve lost five of their last six games overall and they will be hoping for a better effort after getting trampled by the Thunder in a 122-95 road defeat last night. Jerami Grant led the team with 21 points on six of eight shooting. Deni Avdija had a night to forget as he shot just four of 16 for his 11 points while Rayan Rupert chipped in with 10 points, but no other player finished in double figures in scoring.
As a team, the Trail Blazers shot just 37 percent from the field and 12 of 47 from the 3-point line, but it’s almost like they started the game behind on the scoreboard as they were already trailing by 21 points in the first quarter.
Milwaukee Bucks Betting Preview
Meanwhile, the Milwaukee Bucks have been in a slump as they’ve lost five of their last six games overall and they will be hoping to arrest a four-game slide after getting routed by the Pistons in a 129-116 loss on Saturday. Ryan Rollins led the team with 24 points and seven assists, Bobby Portis added 18 points and seven rebounds on seven of 10 shooting while AJ Green chipped in with 15 points. As a team, the Bucks shot 51 percent from the field and an efficient 20 of 43 from the 3-point line, but they were always fighting an uphill battle in this one after allowing 39 points in the second quarter. The Bucks trailed in this one by as many as 29 points before they finished with a flurry late to keep the final margin respectable.

Bucks vs Trail Blazers Prediction
The Trail Blazers are still depleted with Jrue Holiday, Shaedon Sharpe, Scoot Henderson and Matisse Thybulle out, while the Bucks have ruled out Giannis Antetokounmpo, Taurean Prince and Kevin Porter Jr once again. You couldn’t back either side with any confidence at the moment as they’re just missing so many of their starters. The Bucks open as slight favorites at home and I can see them winning if Rollins can continue his hot form, but the Trail Blazers were humbled last night. I think they will bounce back and get a much needed win to get back on track.
