Milwaukee Bucks vs Miami Heat Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 11/26/25

There is good news on the horizon for the Milwaukee Bucks as their superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo edges back to a comeback. His status has been updated to questionable ahead of Wednesday’s game in Miami, but likely won’t suit up. As desperate as the Bucks have been, even that counts for something. They’ve lost 5 games in a row, and during this stretch, only the Dallas Mavericks had a worse offensive rating — while they ranked 23rd in the league defensively. Not much is expected against Miami here, even though the Bucks enter this game having gone 6-1 ATS/SU in 7 meetings.

For Miami, it’s been a whole different story. The Heat have won 5 in a row, and Wednesday’s game is a massive opportunity to catch the Bucks in the NBA Cup standings with a win. I was impressed with the way Miami handled Philadelphia over the weekend, and they followed that up with a win over the Mavericks on Monday. This team is 8-1 SU at home, and with a total of 8 players averaging double-digits in points, it’s really hard to know who will have the hot hand if you’re the opposition. Norman Powell is proving to be an integral part of the team. His 25.4 points per game are a career high. From a bettors perspective, the Heat have been reliable at 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games, and they’re also 8-2 ATS in 10 games versus East teams.

Milwaukee’s Net Rating of -14.5 points is the worst in the NBA over the past 5 games. Until Giannis is back, the Bucks really don’t have much to hope for. I’ll take the reliable Miami Heat here.
