The Bucks will be without Taurean Prince and Giannis Antetokounmpo. Ryan Rollins is questionable.

Thunder vs Bucks Prediction

This is a lot of points to lay with teams on the end of a back-to-back, and the Thunder are still down key players. Furthermore, as I’ve said a lot this season, OKC isn’t the cash cow it’s been in the past two seasons, posting a 27-27-1 ATS record. The Bucks beat the Magic last night as a double-digit underdog. The Thunder are 2-8 ATS in their last 10 games as a double-digit favorite. Five of those failed covers were outright losses. I’m going to grab the points with the Bucks.
