Portland Trail Blazers vs Milwaukee Bucks Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 11/24/25

The Portland Trail Blazers head to Milwaukee to face a Bucks team that hasn’t looked the same without Giannis Antetokounmpo, who is likely sidelined again as he continues recovering from a thigh strain. Without him, Milwaukee’s offense has dipped noticeably — posting a modest scoring stretch and leaning on inconsistent secondary options like Myles Turner and Ryan Rollins. The Bucks have averaged only 108 points over their last 4 games, a significant drop from their typical output when healthy. Meanwhile, Portland enters with confidence behind strong production from Deni Avdija — who continues to score at a high clip (25.1 ppg) — and Donovan Clingan, who has been a steady interior force on the glass. Their combination of size, energy and wing scoring gives the Blazers a stable foundation, especially against a compromised Milwaukee lineup.

Milwaukee’s struggles extend beyond raw scoring — their half-court execution has dipped, spacing has become more inconsistent and closing out games has been a challenge without their MVP-caliber anchor. Portland’s roster, while young, has shown resilience and improvement — particularly in matchups where its guards and wings can dictate tempo. The Blazers’ ability to take advantage of weakened defensive rotations should help them keep this game competitive deep into the fourth quarter. Against a Bucks team still searching for offensive rhythm and identity without Giannis, this is a favorable spot to back the healthier, more stable roster.
