The Bucks are coming into this game with a 2-2 record this season after a bit of a rough start but they are going to be hungry to bounce back here at home in their 1st game of the group stage for the NBA in-season tournament. The Bucks are 2-1 at home this year and they won their last game there against the Heat by 8 points. They are also coming off of a very bad loss on the road in their last game as they lost by 19 points in Toronto, but they were likely looking ahead a bit to this group stage game. They are going up against a Knicks team that is 2-3 this season and has lost 2 of their last 3 games. RJ Barrett is also banged up for the Knicks and might not play in this game, but even if he does play the Bucks still have a lot more talent with the addition of Lillard and now that they have 4 games under their belt together, they will be looking to put on a show here at home. The Bucks are going to cover the spread in this game.
