Game Preview
The Milwaukee Bucks are 5-1 in the past six matches and are closing on the Knicks, who are third in the NBA Eastern Conference standings. With a win here, they will come to 2.5 games behind the NYK and their third seed.
Giannis is the second-best scorer in the NBA, with 31.3 points per game. He also has the league’s No.7 field goal percentage, with 59.9% FG, which makes him a legit NBA MVP candidate.
On the other hand, the Knicks are on a downhill slope, and they aren’t looking that good at all. Their most recent loss was at Madison, where the OKC Thunder defeated them 121-106.
This was the Knicks’ fourth defeat in the previous five meetings. It’s an obvious sign that the team is in a crisis and needs to come up with something to get back on the winning path.
Bucks vs. Knicks Head-to-Head
The first meeting of the year was on November 8, when Knicks beat the Bucks at the MSG, 116-94.
Bucks vs. Knicks Prediction
It’s a bit risky, yet we are going with the Bucks to win here. Why? They are in excellent shape, and the Knicks are definitely in a minus phase. Also, Giannis is very dominant these days, which means that when it comes to his matchup with KAT, we don’t have a shred of doubt that the Greek Freak will come out as the winner here. That’ll have a big impact on the final result.
