Bucks vs. Wizards NBA Betting Prediction
The Bucks and Wizards are both not necessarily known for their prowess on the defensive end. With injuries not expected to significantly impact either team in tonight’s NBA betting matchup, the usual suspects should be able to put up steady scoring production. Combine this with the value play we see at BetMGM, and there seems to be good value on the over for this matchup. The two teams combined for 244 points in Saturday’s matchup and it is reasonable to expect a similar result in tonight’s meeting.
