*Editor’s Note: Statistics and rankings are current as of this writing, Friday evening, January 13th. Numbers may vary slightly entering games on Saturday, January 14th.
Milwaukee Bucks
In what could’ve been called ‘the injury bowl’ the Heat had their best two players on the hardwood but the Bucks didn’t have theirs and in the end, it was the difference in the outcome.
Credit to Jrue Holiday and the Bucks reserve unit for keeping the game as close as it was. In short, Holiday served up a double-double of 24 points, 11 assists, and six rebounds. Also, Milwaukee’s bench outscored the Heat reserves 51 to 24.
Yet, the absence of Giannis Antetokounmpo was evident as was Khris Middleton but at this point, the Bucks are more used to not having him than not.
Bucks Stats
Altogether, opponents score the ninth-fewest points with the Bucks allowing 111.2 per game limiting opponents to (45.3%) from the field and 34.7% from deep ranking fourth and seventh respectively.
As can be seen, offensively, the Bucks score 112.2 points per game (21st), while shooting 45.3% from the field and 34.7% from the perimeter ranking 26th and 20th in the latter two categories.
Additionally, Giannis Antetokounmpo, (knee), Grayson Allen (ankle), and Joe Ingles (rest) are questionable while Serge Ibaka (personal) and Khris Middleton are out.
Miami Heat
For the past several seasons the Heat have resided in the same territory as the Celtics and Bucks but this season they don’t exude quite the same fear level.
Sure, Jimmy Butler can still take over a game on any given night but his supporting cast doesn’t feel quite as reliable this season. And don’t think Pat Riley doesn’t see it too.
While most are keeping eye on the other top dogs in the conference don’t sleep on the Heat being the team that makes the move to bolster what is a ‘win now’ group that’s at least one star short of returning to the upper echelon.
Heat Stats
Offensively, the Heat score 108.1 points per game (30th rank) shooting 45.2% from the field (27th) and 34.1% from the perimeter (24th).
As can be seen, defensively, the Heat allow opponents to score 108.8 points per game ranking second overall. Also, Miami opponents shoot 47.4% from the field and 33.8% from the perimeter ranking 21st and 25th respectively.
Another key point, Tyler Herro (Achilles), Kyle Lowry (knee), Caleb Martin (quad), Udonis Haslem (Achilles) Dewayne Dedmon (suspension) are all questionable for Saturday. Additionally, Duncan Robinson (finger), Nikola Jovic (back), and Omer Yurtseven (ankle surgery) are out.

Free Milwaukee Bucks vs. Miami Heat NBA Prediction:
Also, it’s unlikely Giannis Antetokounmpo misses consecutive games so with that in mind and knowing the Bucks will be playing as the more desperate team I’ll take that meager one point and bank on Milwaukee splitting the baseball set.
