Milwaukee won the only meeting this season, 115-107 on Dec. 7 and the Bucks have covered five of their last six games against the Trail Blazers and four of the last five at Portland. The Bucks lost at Golden State in a tough back-to-back situation on Saturday, but they still have won eight of their last 10 games (7-3 ATS). Portland is playing its first home game after a five-game trip and also playing its third game in four nights. Damian Lillard exploded for 49 points in the Portland's 115-104 win over Miami on Sunday. Portland is 2-8 ATS its last 10 games when playing on one day of rest and 2-5 ATS its last seven home games. The Blazers didn't cover their last two home contests against Philadelphia and Washington, with both games going into overtime. Look for Milwaukee with two days of rest to bounce back from its loss at Golden State. Take the points and play the Bucks.
