Depleted Milwaukee has been ravaged by key injuries and now heads to San Antonio after playing last night. The Bucks allowed 36% shooting in a win last night, slowing the pace down (they are third in the NBA in points allowed), but the Bucks are 8-23 ATS following a win of more than 10 points, plus on a 16-5 run UNDER the total (7-0 UNDER on the road). They will slow the pace down again, but will be overmatched in every other area in this one. San Antonio can also play defense, ninth in the league in points allowed. The Spurs have their defensive ace back in Kawhi Leonard and are on 4-1-1 ATS run, including 5-2 UNDER the total. The Spurs swept last season's two matchups by a combined 60 points, including a 110-82 rout in San Antonio on Jan. 19th, 2014 against Milwaukee. The Spurs shot 54.3 percent in those victories and have topped 50.0 percent in seven of the last nine matchups. The Bucks are 0-4 ATS in the last four meetings. Play San Antonio and the game UNDER the total.
