Miami Heat
Point Spread Pick
MIL Bucks -5.5(-110)

This will be the third meeting between the Milwaukee Bucks and the Miami Heat. The Bucks have won both meetings so far and will be confident they can keep their dominance going on their homecourt tonight. They are riding a 3-game winning streak ahead of the contest. The Heat have had issues away from home this season, with a 13-17 record so far. Their last visit to Milwaukee ended in a 29-point loss and they could have issues staying competitive in this contest too. While the hosts have 4 players listed on the injury report, they are all down as probable to play so we should see the likes of Giannis Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard take to the floor. It should put the hosts in a great position to keep their win streak going.

The Heat have had issues scoring in the paint over the last 10 games, ranking 24th in the league. With the size of Antetokounmpo and Brook Lopez, the Bucks will have the rim protection necessary on the court to compound their struggles there. Damian Lillard has been averaging 33 points per game against the Heat this season and will be well positioned to cause them issues once more tonight. The visitors had issues dealing with Immanuel Quickley in their last outing and could struggle to contain another scoring guard here. Back the hosts to cover the spread here.

Like most Lithuanians, I started watching basketball from the age of six. I'm based out in London and played basketball at the University of Lincoln here in the UK. I had always had an interest in the NBA but things really took off in the summer of 2010. That year Linas Kleiza led Lithuania to 3rd place at the World Championships and signed with the Toronto Raptors to replace the departing Chris Bosh. I've been a Raptors fan since that day and I've not missed a game since. I've been handicapping games for more than a decade, specializing in player props.
