WagerTalk NBA handicapper Andy Lang offers his Toronto Raptors vs Milwaukee Bucks betting preview for Thursday, December 2. At the time of posting, Milwaukee has opened as a 4-point road favorite at Toronto, with the total sitting at 215 points.<\/p>\n
Stay on top of the latest NBA<\/a> updates direct from Las Vegas!<\/em><\/p>\n The Raptors are reeling and the Bucks are surging\u2026that\u2019s the story with this game. Toronto has lost three straight and they\u2019ve lost seven out of nine with one win being against the sinking Kings and the other win against Memphis. They just don\u2019t have a true star on this team that strikes fear in the other team and they\u2019re going up against the Bucks who are winners of eight straight now after their win in the crazy game against Charlotte that ended 127-125.<\/p>\n Giannis is starting to emerge as the best player in the league this season as he\u2019s averaging almost 30 points the last four wins, and it\u2019s gotta be scary if you\u2019re Toronto as you\u2019ve just lost to the Pacers, Celtics and Grizzlies with no Morant. One thing they do have going for them is rest. They have a day off and Milwaukee is coming off a game with a ton of points and a ton of energy used up. Is that going to be enough?<\/p>\n There\u2019s no beating around the bush with this play. The line is -3.5\/-4 for the Bucks, and I couldn\u2019t be more excited to lay the points. They didn\u2019t cover the spread tonight against Charlotte, but Charlotte\u2019s insane pace and shot attempts kept them in this game. They shot 41.2% from three pointers, 85.7% from the free throw line, and still lost.<\/p>\n This now makes the streak 145 days since Milwaukee lost a game where Holiday, Middleton and Giannis started. Holiday and Middleton seem 100% after their absences, and I don\u2019t believe Giannis will sit this game so I\u2019m happy to lay a low number.<\/p>\n Siakam and Achiuwa can be athletic, but I don\u2019t see how they slow down the Giannis-Middleton combo, and Holiday is going to be all over VanVleet to disrupt the offense. Toronto is 1-9 ATS at home and 0-3 against the spread in their last three. My only piece of advice here is to verify the lineups for Milwaukee tomorrow before laying the bet in case they are missing a big three member. If they are, I might look for value in another game, but if Milwaukee is ready to roll, look for them to continue their winning streak.<\/p>\n OFFICIAL PLAY: Bucks -4<\/p>\n Thursday on WagerTalk TV: \u2014 WagerTalk (@WagerTalk) December 2, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\nToronto Raptors vs Milwaukee Bucks Predictions<\/h3>\n
