Los Angeles Clippers @ Milwaukee Bucks Preview

The Los Angeles Clippers (31-23) enter this matchup riding a three-game winning streak, including a recent victory over the Bucks on January 25, 2025. The Clippers boast a strong defense, allowing just 108 points per game, ranking 3rd in the league. However, their offense has been inconsistent, averaging 111 points per game. Norman Powell has been a standout performer, recently scoring 41 points in a win over Utah.

The Milwaukee Bucks (29-24) have struggled with consistency, winning only four of their last ten games. They are missing their superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo, who is sidelined with a calf injury. Without Giannis, the Bucks will rely heavily on Damian Lillard, who is averaging 25.8 points per game. The Bucks have been strong at home, with an 18-9 record at Fiserv Forum, but their defense has been shaky, allowing 112.9 points per game.

Historically, the Bucks have dominated this series, winning 73 of the 128 regular-season matchups. However, the Clippers have been more competitive in recent years, making this a closely contested rivalry.

Pick: Clippers -1

The Clippers' strong defense and recent momentum make them the better pick in this matchup. With Giannis Antetokounmpo out, the Bucks will struggle to match the Clippers' defensive intensity. Additionally, the Clippers' ability to limit opponents' scoring and their recent success against the Bucks give them the edge. Expect a close game, but the Clippers should cover the spread.
