This Friday night hoops matchup will see the Milwaukee Bucks taking on the Utah Jazz.
These teams play just two times a year because they are in opposite conferences. Last season, the home team won both meetings.
Milwaukee Bucks
The Bucks are coming into this game on a four-game win streak. They just beat the Clippers 129-124. Granted, the Clippers did not play Kawhi Leonard, so the fact that they struggled is a slight concern.
The Bucks are putting up points at a high rate, scoring 122.2 points per game. This ranks at the best offense in the NBA. They are also shooting the ball at an extremely high level. They are 1st in the league, shooting 47.7% from the field.
The three-point shooting is a little worse, ranking 14th and coming in at 35.4%. To no surprise, Giannis Antetokounmpo leads the team is essentially every offensive category. He is scoring 29 points per game. He is averaging 7.6 assists per game, 14.2 rebounds per game and is shooting 59.2% from the field.
Looking at guys other than Giannis, we have Khris Middleton, who scores 18.6 points per game. Milwaukee also have two other guys who average 10+ points or more, so there is plenty of weapons on this team.

Defensively, the Bucks are still struggling to stop teams. Their opponents are averaging 112 points per game. This ranks 20th in the league. They do hold opponents to 41% shooting, which is 3rd best in the NBA.
Utah Jazz
The Jazz are coming into this game after a home win against the Philadelphia 76ers last time out. They are still undefeated at home and have a record of 4-0.
Offensively, the Jazz are no juggernaut. They are averaging 100.8 points per game, which is ranked 28th. They are shooting extremely well however, coming in at 46.3% from the field and 36.9% from the three-point line.
Their go to guy has been Donovan Mitchell thus far. Mitchell is averaging 25.5 points per game. He also leads the team with 3.9 assists per game.
Rudy Gobert has been their biggest low post threat. He is scoring 11.2 points per game and is averaging 12.5 rebounds per game.

Defensively, the Jazz are one of the best teams. The allow a league best 96.6 points per game. They are allowing just 41.6% shooting from the field (4th in the NBA) and 31.1% shooting from deep range (5th in the NBA)
Slowing down Giannis is going to be a must, but if they do this, they will have a chance to win the game outright.

Free Milwaukee Bucks vs. Utah Jazz NBA Prediction:
Utah is an extremely good home team, but the Bucks are rolling right now. I do not know if they will be able to slow down Giannis Antetokounmpo and that will be the difference to a Milwaukee win.
4* Free NBA Betting Pick: UNDER 218
Milwaukee has struggled to cover in games played in Utah, so I like the Jazz to slow things down and keep it close. I actually like the under more because of the defense that Utah plays, especially when playing in their own arena. That said, I will take the under as my pick.
