Smart Game Analysis
Milwaukee Bucks has a 72% chance of winning the game
The Bucks are heavy favorites on the road as they face a slumping Kings squad missing its best player and struggling mightily on the defensive end.
Key Analysis
- • Sacramento star Domantas Sabonis is confirmed out with a knee injury, removing the team's top rebounder and facilitator.
- • Leading scorer Zach LaVine is listed as questionable or out with an ankle issue, leaving the Kings without their primary perimeter threat.
- • Giannis Antetokounmpo is probable to play and enters the game averaging nearly 30 points and 10 rebounds over his last 10 contests.
- • The Kings possess a porous defense that is allowing an average of 122.3 points per game, the worst mark in the league.
- • Milwaukee has won four of its last six games, while Sacramento is currently on a four-game losing streak.
- • The Bucks hold a significant advantage on the glass against a depleted Kings frontcourt that lacks size without Sabonis.
- • Sacramento must generate high-volume three-point shooting from role players like Keegan Murray to compensate for their roster absences.
