Knicks vs. Bucks Predictions for NBA on Peacock, 10/28

We last saw both of these Eastern Conference Final hopefuls on Sunday night, both of which were on the road and suffered losses. Therefore, making any Knicks vs. Bucks predictions will be one between two 2-1 teams looking to bounce back. It’ll be Giannis & company who get to head back to their home court.

Speaking of the Greek Freak, his team may have suffered a loss, but he had yet another dominant performance to the tune of 40 points and 14 rebounds. Through just three games this season, Giannis is averaging a remarkable 36 points, 16 boards, and 7 assists per game. Even with that being the case, he’s still quite a long shot in the MVP odds.

Before we get into the Knicks vs. Bucks odds, we actually see Jalen Brunson with the third-shortest odds to win MVP. With New York already having had to deal with injuries to Josh Hart, Mitch Robinson, and Miles McBride, he very well may need to single-handedly carry this team.

Of course, there’s still Karl-Anthony Towns and other notable names to consider when finding a best bet from our Knicks vs. Bucks predictions.
 

 

 

Knicks vs. Bucks Best Bet: Karl-Anthony Towns Over 20.5 Points (-115 at Onyx Odds)

Milwaukee would certainly prefer to have Kevin Porter back on the court, and as for other names besides Giannis, let’s also not forget that the team added Myles Turner this offseason. While he was with the Indiana Pacers last year, the center averaged 13 points and just 3.2 rebounds per game in the playoff series against the Knicks.

In other words, it’s clear that Giannis will still be the primary board-getter for this Bucks team. We’ve spent plenty of time focusing on the Greek Freak, and rightfully so, but what about the New York side for any Knicks vs. Bucks picks? Oftentimes, we see Jalen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns alternate taking over games for them.

Two nights ago, we saw Brunson drop 37 points against the Miami Heat, and the game prior, it was KAT dropping 26 on the Boston Celtics. While Giannis is sure to cause some hesitation, KAT has proven that he can hold his own, averaging 25.3 points per game against Milwaukee in three matchups last year.

That was second to only Jalen Brunson, and along with averaging a double-double versus Giannis, we’ve got Karl-Anthony Towns over 20.5 points (-115 at Onyx Odds) as the best bet from our Knicks vs. Bucks predictions.
