Summarized by: Live Sports Direct
 

Cleveland Cavaliers are coming into the game after losing to the Minnesota Timberwolves. The last time the teams met, the Cavaliers won 133-115. Milwaukee Bucks are entering the match after a loss to Atlanta Hawks. Today's Best Bet is in the Miami (OH) vs. NIU game. Buy it and you can see all of you back in green. It was written/published before last night's results.

Cleveland Cavaliers have lost four games in a row and are currently the fourth seed in the Eastern Conference standings. They are 2.5 games back from the first-place Boston Celtics. Donovan Mitchel is scoring 31.6 points per game on 51.2% shooting from field. Dean Wade, Donovan Mitchell and Jarrett Allen are injured and listed as questionable for this game. Milwaukee Bucks are the 10th most rebounds-minded team in NBA. The team has the fifth-lowest defensive rating in league. It is also the eighth least amount of points given up per games.

Milwaukee Bucks have lost three of their last four games. They are currently the two seed in the Eastern Conference standings. The Bucks are scoring 111.5 points per game and shooting 43.9% from the field. Giannis Antetokounmpo is scoring 31.3 points on 52.6% shooting from field and 75% at the free-throw line. On the defensive end, they are allowing 107 points and their opponents shot 44%. They also grab 50. 5 rebounds per games, which is the most in NBA. Jrue Holiday PG, Grayson Allen SG, Wesely Matthews SG and Pat Connaughton SG are out.

Milwaukee Bucks are the better team and they are at home. They have Giannis Antetokounmpo and are a better defensive team. Donovan Mitchell is a doubt for the game. The Cavaliers have lost four games in a row. The Bucks have an adjusted defensive rating of 106.3. I recommend checking the injury report before the match.

Cleveland Cavaliers and Milwaukee Bucks are playing a low-scoring game. The Bucks have the lowest adjusted defensive rating in the NBA. Both teams have been spectacular on the defensive end of the court. The Cavaliers have 25th-lowest tempo rating and the Bucks the 8th least. I pick the under (220) for this game, because I see both teams struggling from the field.
