Expert picks & predictions for Friday’s Knicks vs. Bucks game
NBC Sports Bet Best Bet
Vaughn Dalzell (@VmoneySports) leans the Bucks to cover against the Knicks:
“Without Jalen Brunson, the Knicks are beating bad teams and losing to average or good squads. Not that the Bucks are much different without Damian Lillard, but we’ve seen Milwaukee beat Sacramento, Los Angeles, and Indiana in the last two weeks, compared to New York edging out Washington, Dallas, and Miami in that same span. It’s Bucks or pass for me, especially after being blown out by the Knicks in the two meetings this season.”
