NBA Betting Preview:
Free NBA Picks and Predictions on this Milwaukee Bucks vs Los Angeles Lakers game tipping off Wednesday, March 31, 2021. The NBA Odds have the Bucks listed as an -8 point favorite and the over/under is currently at 222 total points.
These two teams last played in January where the Lakers got the 113-106 road victory. In that game, LeBron James and Anthony Davis combined for 52 points, 15 rebounds, and 14 assists, but this go around they’ll be without both of them, so it will be a much different story.
The big news is that Andre Drummond will make his debut with the Lakers. Drummond hasn’t played in over six weeks, but he should be in pretty good shape and could have a significant impact on this game depending on how many minutes Coach Vogel plays him.
The Bucks on the road this season have the second best offense in the league, scoring an average of 118.9 points per game. They come into this game after dropping their last 3 games in a row against the Celtics, Knicks, then to the Clippers on Monday Night. In those last 3 matchups, Milwaukee only averaged 105 total points per game and that could be due to PJ Tucker and Bobby Portis both being out due to injuries and health issues.
Defensively on the road this season, Milwaukee gives up an average of 115.6 points per game. They are now sitting in the third spot in the Eastern Conference and this is the perfect opportunity to grab a win and get back on track, but they can’t take the Lakers too lightly even without Lebron and AD on the court.
Milwaukee is 1-6 against the spread in their last 7 games and the total has gone over in 8 of the Bucks last 11 games against an opponent in the Pacific Division.
In the Lakers last 3 games, they’ve only managed to score an average of 99 total points, but ended up winning 2 out of those 3 games from playing top tier defense that only gave up an average of 96 total points over that span. The Cavaliers and the Magic were 2 of those 3 teams, so those defensive numbers look much better than they actually are.
LA is 1-5 against the spread in their last 6 games and the total has gone under in 4 of the Lakers’ last 5 games against Milwaukee.
The best opportunity to make money on this Milwaukee Bucks vs Los Angeles Lakers game is to roll with a 5-point teaser and take the Bucks -3 and the under 227 total points at the -120 price.
