Boston at Milwaukee

Premium Pick

The Milwaukee Bucks got a big Game 3 win to get themselves back in the series, as they trail the Boston Celtics 2-1. The Celtics have gotten here despite losing Kyrie Irving and Gordon Hayward for the season, but there is a lot of young talent in Rozier, Tatum, and Brown. The issue here is all these young faces playing major roles, and on the road in the playoffs. Both of these teams are young, and the home court so far has been very friendly for these young teams. I expect to see more of the same today. The Bucks have the best player on the court in Gionnis Antetokounmpo, and he has delivered 28 points, nine rebounds, and seven assists per game. And Boston has not been able to slow him down. Milwaukee has won four of their last five at home, and two of those wins have come vs. Boston. Boston, meanwhile, has dropped four straight on the road. Make the play on Milwaukee.
