Prediction

Bucks 121, Wizards 105

Money line

PASS  on the money line. The Wizards are 12-23 on the road and have lost seven straight on the road. The Bucks are 25-12 in their home arena and have won their last five straight at home.

There is no value in taking the Bucks here unless you include it in a parlay bet, and there is little chance the Wizards will pull out the outright upset.
