Philadelphia 76ers Preview
The Philadelphia 76ers have found their rhythm, with four wins in their four previous games.
They beat the Brooklyn Nets in overtime at home on Saturday. Joel Embiid finished the game with 39 points, 16 rebounds, and two blocks. He was followed by Tobias Harris, who chipped in with 22 points, 12 rebounds and six dishes.
From the bench, Alec Burks poured in 19 points and four rebounds.
Only three players were in double digits though, and the 76ers will be hoping for more contributions from the others going ahead in the second half.
Key Player - Joel Embiid
It will be another exciting night to witness a Giannis-Embiid duel. Embiid is coming off a remarkable performance against the Nets and will be willing to dominate the Greek Freak tonight.
76ers' predicted lineup
Ben Simmons, Glenn Robinson III, Tobias Harris, Josh Richardson, Joel Embiid
Milwaukee Bucks Preview
The Milwaukee Bucks are having a historic season so far, with only eight losses. They have won six of their last seven games and have maintained their position at the top of the East.
The last game against the Pistons saw a blowout victory for the Bucks. Giannis Antetokounmpo finished the game with 33 points, 16 rebounds, and four dishes alongside Khris Middleton, who added 28 points from his side.
Point guard Eric Bledsoe looked excellent overall too, finishing with 19 points on the board.
The Bucks will be willing to continue their run tonight against the Philadelphia 76ers.
Key Player - Giannis Antetokounmpo
It has been another MVP season for Giannis Antetokounmpo, who is averaging 30 points, 13.5 rebounds, and 5.8 assists a game. He is shooting 55% from the field and nearly 30% from beyond the three-point line.
Giannis will have the task of stopping Embiid tonight, and also scoring over him.
Bucks' Predicted Lineup
Eric Bledsoe, Wesley Matthews, Khris Middleton, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Brook Lopez
76ers vs Bucks Match Prediction
The 76ers displayed great heart against the Nets despite being without the services of Ben Simmons. Simmons has been listed as probable tonight, which would be a relief for the management. However, their horrible away record (9-19) is a problem, which they need to improve upon.
On the other hand, the Bucks have lost just eight games in the season and have been a brutal force for the opponents at home (25-3).
It will be hard for the 76ers to handle Giannis at the Fiserv Forum. We are giving this one to the Bucks.
