Milwaukee led for most of the game before losing 121-114 to Atlanta on Monday. Khris Middleton scored 34 points and Giannis Antetokounmpo had 27 for the Bucks, who look to bounce back tonight at home against the Grizzlies. Memphis had its winning streak snapped with a 27-point loss to Dallas before rebounding to defeat Chicago 119-106. Milwaukee will depend on Middleton again as Jrue Holiday is doubtful with an ankle injury. Middleton has averaged 24.5 points and 6.8 assists the last six games. This is the first time the teams have met this season and they split two games in 2020-21. The Bucks have covered five of six against teams with winning percentages of at least .600, but go with the Bucks on the moneyline.
