It’s a busy night in the NBA this Wednesday as 24 teams hit the hardwood. My focus is on the Atlanta Hawks vs Milwaukee Bucks game as the teams conclude their regular-season series in Milwaukee. Continue reading below to see my same game parlay.
Also don’t forget to check our predictions on the side and total for the rest of Wednesday’s 12-game slate.
Let’s jump into it!
Milwaukee Bucks 1-10 win margin (+170)
Trae Young 5+ made threes (+480)
Parlay odds: +1378
Milwaukee Bucks 1-10 win margin (+170)
The Bucks have been playing on a different level since the all-star break. They are just coming off a 27-point road victory over Oklahoma City and riding a 5-game win streak. Three of those wins were against Miami, Chicago and Phoenix, and all 3 were by 10 or fewer points. After losing both regular-season meetings against the Hawks, Giannis and co. will be extra motivated to get one over them and avoid the season sweep. The spread has been set at just 5 points, and with the Hawks covering just once in 8 games on the road and losing 9 times in their last 10 visits to Milwaukee I am confident the Bucks will come out on top, but hopefully not in a blowout like it was last night in Oklahoma City.

Trae Young 5+ made threes (+480)
Trae Young has been on a tear against the Bucks in both games played this season and he is the main reason why his team holds a 2-0 lead in the regular-season series. In those games he scored 42 and 30 points, while also dishing out 10.5 assists per game. His shooting splits are 53/52/100, which is impressive even for one of the best shooters we have in the NBA today.
Over his last 10 games overall he’s shooting the 3-ball at almost 39% and just 2 games ago he had 7 threes on 9 attempts against the Chicago Bulls, so backing him to get 5 in tonight’s matchup sounds reasonable. The Bucks aren’t exactly elite when it comes to defending the perimeter — teams are averaging 34.9% makes per game against them this season and over their last 3 games that number is up to 41.7%. Hopefully Young can get hot and take advantage.
