Season Series
Last season the Bucks swept the three-game season series and also holds the all-time record between the clubs with 125 victories in 231 matches.
*Editor’s Note: Statistics and rankings are current as of this writing, on Saturday, April 6th. Numbers may vary slightly entering games on Sunday, April 7th.
New York Knicks
After months of speculation about Julius Randle and when/whether he would return for the post-season the Knicks announced he’ll undergo season-ending shoulder surgery.
Logically, this result was inevitable given the forward’s penchant for playing aggressively and physically. Ultimately there was concern he could sustain further injury or worse and cause permanent damage.
Knicks Stats
New York ranks ninth offensively (117.0), and eighth defensively (112.1) while their net differential is plus +4.9 which ranks tied for fourth in the association.
The Knicks are a fairly strong bet against the spread with a 41-35-1 record through 77 contests.
Knicks Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
- Julius Randle, PF (OUT for season— shoulder)
- Bojan Bogdanovic, SF (questionable— wrist)
Milwaukee Bucks
This is not the time in the season to hit a rough patch which is precisely what has happened to the Bucks. Not only have they lost three games in a row but all of them were against tanking teams – – Wizards, Grizzlies, and Raptors.
Health is also an issue as Damian Lillard (3 of last 4), Giannis (3 of last 10), and Khris Middleton (2 of last 8) have all missed time recently.
It could be suggested the Bucks are being uber-conscious of getting their core rest but that seems unlikely because they haven’t cemented their seed.
Bucks Stats
Milwaukee’s key categories find them ranked fifth offensively (118.0), and 15th defensively (115.0) with a net differential of plus +3.2 which ranks eighth overall.
Betting on the Bucks against the spread is a tricky proposition given their 33-44 record in that category.
Bucks Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
- Patrick Beverley, PG (questionable — ankle)
- Giannis Antetokounmpo, PF (questionable — hamstring)
- Marjon Beauchamp, SF (downgraded to OUT — ankle)
- Jaylin Galloway, SF (downgraded to OUT —ankle)

Free New York Knicks vs. Milwaukee Bucks NBA Prediction:
With Randle, the Knicks were 29-17 while they are 15-14 without him. Arguably, the more important player is O.G. Anunoby as New York is 15-3 when he plays and the good news is he returned on Friday.
This match has major seeding implications because the Bucks sit in second up 1.5 games on the Cavs and 2.0 games over the Knicks and Magic. Notably, Milwaukee has two more games against Orlando which could also impact seeding.
