Warriors vs Bucks Prediction & Player Props: Giannis vs Steph

Steph Curry and the Golden State Warriors travel to Milwaukee to take on Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Bucks in a West vs. East battle of the superstars.

The Warriors picked up a huge win over the weekend against East-best Celtics, 123-107.

The Warriors have been led by Steph Curry all season, which is no surprise but fellow guard Klay Thompson has picked up the pace recently and has been fantastic.

Thompson has averaged 18 points per game this season but in his last 4, he has scored 22+ points and has been on fire from behind the arc (more on that later).

Curry and Thompson get to try their luck tonight on the road in Milwaukee against the Greek Freak, Giannis.

The Bucks are looking like contenders yet again, and Giannis is a playing like a potential MVP.

Giannis gets his chance to go at the Warriors in what should be a great game and a down to the wire finish.

In a close one in Milwaukee, who will come out on top and add to their early season success?

Prediction

I love the Bucks in this matchup.

The Warriors had to travel after a big win at home against the Celtics and I believe they come out a little bit flat in this one.

Giannis also likes playing the Warriors, as he has 30+ points in 3 of his last 4 games against the Warriors.

I like him to have a big game yet again tonight and help the Bucks win at home.

Best Bet

Bucks -4 (-112)

Prop of the Game

Klay Thompson o20.5 points (-122)

As I mentioned above, Thompson has been rolling.

Teams against the Warriors are prioritizing getting the ball out of Steph’s hands and that leaves plenty of one-on-one opportunities for Klay from deep and off the dribble.

He has 21+ in 5 of his last 6 games and has 22+ in 4 straight.

His last game against the Bucks as well? 38 points and 8/14 from 3.

Klay is hot right now and I expect that to continue.

Bonus:

Klay o4.5 3s (+125)
