Betting on the Bucks? Record: 42-7, 1st in NBA Eastern Conference

The Bucks fell off the saddle when the Nuggets snapped their nine-game win streak on Friday with a 127-115 loss.

But, Milwaukee dusted themselves off with 129-108 rout of the visiting Phoenix Suns on Sunday. An inspired Antetokounmpo and Brook Lopez took over in the win with Giannis finishing an assist shy of a triple-double in just over half an hour of play.

The Bucks own the best record in the NBA, and they're solid on both ends of the court. They lead the league in shooting efficiency while holding road hosts to 106 points or less in seven of their last eight away games. Milwaukee is allowing an average of 106.5 points per game on the road.

The Bucks' defense will be key to slowing down Zion Williamson, who jumped back into the thick of things, leading the Pelicans to a strong close of the season.

Betting on the Pelicans? Record: 32-15, 3rd in the NBA Western Conference

 Zion Williamson's return sparked a fire in the Pelicans' asses. New Orleans is 3-3 SU since Williamson stepped back onto the courts on January 22 against the Spurs.

But, even before Zion's return, the Pelicans have been holding their own despite what their 20-30 SU record may show. Over the past 22 games, the Pelicans have gone 16-5-1 ATS and 14-8 straight up.

The Pelicans are a dynamic team that can score. The combination of Brandon Ingram, Jrue Holiday, and Williamson is deadly-effective, but they tend to be careless with the ball.
