Philadelphia 76ers vs Milwaukee Bucks Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 12/05/25

After winning a game on their home floor last night, the Philadelphia 76ers will travel to Milwaukee to take on the Bucks. The 76ers are coming off a 99-98 win last night against the Golden State Warriors. The 76ers led this game by 20 points midway through the 3rd quarter, but Philadelphia allowed a team with no Steph Curry, Jimmy Butler, or Draymond Green to come back and take the lead late. The 76ers snuck by with a win after VJ Edgecombe hit a go-ahead basket with 0.9 seconds remaining.

The Bucks are 10-13 this season, but they have a home record of 7-6. The Bucks just saw Giannis Antetokounmpo go down, and he could be sidelined for up to 4 weeks with a calf injury. The Bucks will need their role players to step up tonight to find a way to win. 

We have actually already seen the matchup between the 76ers and Bucks this season when Antetokounmpo is out of the lineup. The 76ers beat the Bucks in Milwaukee on November 20th 123-114. Ryan Rollins stepped up with 32 points and 14 assists, but the Bucks could not overcome 54 points and 9 assists from Tyrese Maxey. If that’s what it took to beat the Bucks on their home floor without Antetokounmpo, I’m not going to rely on a repeat 50-point game.

Rollins has emerged as a legitimate scoring threat this season, averaging 17.9 points per game. Also returning to the lineup recently was Kevin Porter Jr. Porter has scored 26 points and 30 points in the 2 games back from injury. The 2 scorers are surrounded by solid players such as Bobby Portis, Kyle Kuzma, Myles Turner, and AJ Green. All 4 of those players are averaging double digits in scoring this season. The 76ers were lucky to get out of their home building last night with a win against Golden State. I’m not projecting they find that same luck tonight.
