NBA Tuesday Free Pick- Washington Wizards at Milwaukee Bucks

Bucks & Sixers Want Good Start to 2nd Half

The Washington Wizards square off against the Milwaukee Bucks in one of the TNT featured games on Tuesday. This battle between two of the top teams in the Eastern Conference should be a good one to watch. Game time is set for 8 p.m.

VietBet opened the Bucks as four-point home favorites with the total set at 210.5. The line i snow Milwaukee -3 and the total is up to 212.

Bucks Look to Cool Down Hot Wizards

The Wizards come into this game at 4-1 both straight-up and against the spread in their last five games. The total has stayed UNDER the VietBet closing line in three of the five outings. They are currently holding down fourth place in the East at 35-25. They have a 29-31 record ATS.

Washington is 17-14 SU (18-13 ATS) on the road this season. This is after going 6-1 (SU and ATS) in its seven road games.

Washington continues to press on without the services of veteran guard John Wall while he rehabs his knee. His back-court partner, Bradley Beal, has done a good job at filling the void. He has averaged a team-high 23.7-points during the absence. He put up 24 points in Sunday’s 109-94 victory against Philadelphia at home to snap the 76ers’ recent seven-game winning streak.

The Wizards are 11^th in the league in scoring with an average of 107.4 points per game.

Bucks Look to Have More Consistent 2nd Half

The Bucks are sixth in the East at 33-26 SU after dropping a tight 123-121 overtime decision against New Orleans on Sunday.  They were a 4.5-point favorite at VietBet. They are an even 3-3 SU with a 2-4 record ATS in their last six games. The total went OVER in four of their last five outings.

Milwaukee is 5-2 SU in its last seven home games. They have failed to cover in five of those seven contests. The Bucks are 19-11 SU at home with a 10-18-2 record ATS.

Three of Milwaukee’s five starters scored at least 20 points in Sunday’s loss. Giannis Antetokounmpo continues to lead the team in points at 27.6 a pop, in rebounds at 10.3, and assists at 4.90.  He is converting on 53.5 percent of his shots from the floor.

The Bucks are ranked 17^th in the league in scoring with an average of 105.2 PPG. They are allowing that exact same amount of points on defense.

I like the Bucks at home SU. I am not all that confident they can pay off ATS. The top play in this matchup is the OVER 212 on the VietBet total line.
