ASA top play on 10* Milwaukee Bucks +3.5 or +4 at Phoenix Suns, 10 PM ET - The Bucks have been on the road since Jan 29th and are playing with a day off after a loss in Utah. Phoenix meanwhile is returning home for their first game after a long 7-game road trip, and we like to fade teams in this situation. Prior to the extended road trip, the Suns had won two straight at home over Chicago and Indiana, but both were close and decided by 2 and 7-points. The Bucks are 1-3 SU on this trip and after that embarrassing loss in Utah we like them to bounce back here. Milwaukee sat Khris Middleton as a precaution in their last game, but he’s expected back for this game. The Bucks have an offensive efficiency advantage as they average 1.208 points per possession compared to the Suns who average 1.188PPP. Defensively the Suns have a slight edge allowing 1.160PPP compared to the Buck who give up 1.172PPP. Milwaukee has an edge when it comes to 3-point shooting though as they rank 7th best in 3PT% and the Suns rank 4th. But the Bucks defend the Arc much better, holding opponents to the 6th lowest 3PT% in the league at 35.1% compared to a Phoenix team that ranks 17th in 3PT% D. Milwaukee has won 3 straight in the series and 7 of the last eight. We expect that trend to continue and will ride the Bucks here plus the points.
