Phoenix Suns vs Milwaukee Bucks Prediction: Masterful Milwaukee takes on sombre Suns

The NBA season has taken a wild turn as we are closer to the Postseason window where teams will be vying for the title or to effect a deep run. Thus, the current period is important for many teams that are looking to enter the Postseason through an inspiring run. In this crucial contest, the Phoenix Suns are going to take on the Milwaukee Bucks.

The Suns come into this game after losing 112:123 against the Warriors despite a 32 points performance by Devin Booker. Phoenix has now lost two in a row but has seven wins in the last eleven games. Kevin Durant’s injury has hampered the team’s title aspirations and his injury looks severe as of now. The Suns have followed a 60+ wins season with a slim return, having won 37 and losing 31 thus far, a record that also took a hit because Devin Booker got injured. Can the Suns finish with a big winning streak and rekindle the hopes of a title after being in the Finals a couple of seasons ago?

The Bucks enter the match after defeating the Kings 133:124 as Giannis Antetokounmpo scrapped 46 points and 12 rebounds. Milwaukee has earned four of the last five games and 20 wins in 22 games. They have now acquired 49 wins and 19 losses and are at the top of the East. The Bucks have built one of the best offenses in the league while their defense knows when to get the stops. They have shown the traits of a title-aspiring team and it will not be a surprise if they earn another trip to the championship, which will be the second time in three seasons. 

The Bucks won against a tough Kings team last night whereas the Suns come into this match after a disappointing loss against the Warriors. This is not an easy one to predict despite the fact that the Bucks are in much better form. I believe that this will be a close game and the Suns will edge out in the closing moments.
