Leading the NBA in scoring at 34.7 points per game while registering four double-doubles, Giannis Antetokounmpo is in a league of his own right now. The “Greek Freak” will look to lead the Milwaukee Bucks once again with Russell Westbrook and the Oklahoma City Thunder in town on Tuesday.
Sportsbook opened the Thunder as 1.5-point road favorites with a total of 212.
- The visiting team is 1-6 SU and 1-5-1 ATS in the last seven games in this matchup.
- The total has gone UNDER in six of the Bucks’ last eight games at home.
- The total has gone UNDER in six of the Thunder’s last eight games.
Antetokounmpo is rightfully favored in the MVP race right now, as the 22-year-old has already posted five outings of 30 points or more. The Bucks will be without key bench player Greg Munroe, as the big man will be sidelined at least two more weeks due to a left calf strain that he suffered in Thursday’s contest against the Boston Celtics.
Westbrook, who recently became the first NBA player in history to post a triple-double against 29 different opponents, is averaging 20.8 points, 12.2 assists and 9.8 rebounds so far. Carmelo Anthony has notched a team-best 23.8 PPG while Paul George is right behind Westbrook at 19.5.
These teams met twice last season and split the meetings, with the Bucks prevailing 98-94 in Milwaukee.
