The Milwaukee Bucks finally faced their first defeat in their tenth game at the hands of the Atlanta Hawks after going 9-0 in the season. They returned to winning ways by beating the Oklahoma City Thunder (136-132) in an exciting encounter that went to overtime.
They will now face the San Antonio Spurs, who seem to have given up on their good start to the season as they are on a five-game losing streak. This has put them ninth in the Western Conference and will host Milwaukee at the AT&T Center on Friday (November 11). This is going to be an East versus West battle.

Milwaukee Bucks vs, San Antonio Spurs: Betting Odds
Milwaukee is 10-1 for the season, courtesy of a nine-game win streak. Their forward, Giannis Antetokounmpo, has missed a few games because of a knee injury and is likely to miss this game as well. Khris Middleton and Pat Connaughton are yet to feature for their team this season.
However, the team still managed to stick around and lead the Eastern Conference with such an impressive record. They are 7-0 at home and have turned their court into a fortress. They will now look to win their eleventh game of the season and remain on top of the standings.
San Antonio should do something about their losing streak. After starting so well this season, the team has suddenly started losing games and is falling like a pack of cards. They are on a five-game losing streak and at home have the perfect chance to beat Milwaukee, who are missing some key players at the moment.
