Suns vs. Bucks NBA Prediction:
Considering the Suns’ recent struggles and the absence of Kevin Durant, the Bucks are favored to win at home. Giannis Antetokounmpo’s leadership and Milwaukee’s home-court advantage may prove decisive. The Bucks are also 7-3 straight up against the Suns and 7-2-1 against the spread in their last 10 meetings with Phoenix. I’m laying the 6.5 points at Bovada.lv.
