Bucks vs Knicks Betting Prediction
The Knicks are in great form, but that could end tonight. They come up against a much stronger team whose talisman Antetokounmpo is playing at an MVP-caliber level.
The Bucks haven’t been in the best of form, but they do look much more solid with Antetokounmpo at the forefront. They have one of the better road records in the NBA, winning nine of their 18 games this season.
