Basketball Preview - 04-03-2024
On April 3rd, Milwaukee Bucks host Memphis Grizzlies for an NBA game that could determine who emerges victorious from their division race in the West. Memphis are just 19-36 on the season and have lost nine straight. Unless they win this contest, they could find themselves all but eliminated from playoff contention. They have been plagued by injuries -- such as Ja Morant leaving them -- as well as some promising young talent such as GG Jackson that can provide offensive punch.
Conversely, the Bucks are led by Giannis Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard who rank among the league's premier scorers. One of few teams capable of stopping these players and forcing turnovers on both of them are the Grizzlies; however, their offense often struggles to secure possession; something likely to remain an issue when facing off against an aggressive Bucks team that can get shots up quickly in transition and at the rim.
SportsLine's proven computer model has determined that taking under is best in this game and strongly advises signing up for a free account today to see why! The Bucks are currently favored by 11.5 points over their opponent, but that spread is deceptive given their recent inconsistency and lack of firepower.
