NBA Pick
- Over 212.5 (-110) at Caesars Sportsbook (check our Caesars Sportsbook Review)
Milwaukee Bucks vs. Indiana Pacers
Thursday, May 02, 2024 – 06:30 PM ET at Gainbridge Fieldhouse
The AI Model believes the Bucks and Pacers will combine for 214 points in tonight’s Game 6. However, Caesars’ total is listed at 212.5, meaning the Over has some value in tonight’s showdown.
No Lillard, No Problem
The Milwaukee Bucks scored 131.4 points per 100 possessions and shot a 58.9% effective field goal percentage in their Game 5 win over the Pacers to force a Game 6.
It’s unlikely Damian Lillard and Giannis Antetokounmpo return to tonight’s game. Therefore, we could ultimately see this same kind of output from the Bucks in Game 6.
Indiana’s Still The Best Offense In The NBA
The Pacers only dropped 104.7 points per 100 possessions against the Bucks in Game 5. However, they’re headed back home now, where they scored at least 124.7 points per 100 possessions in both games.
The Pick
Indiana is way more efficient offensively at home. Meanwhile, the Bucks are showing real signs of life offensively despite being without their two all-star players.
Back the Over. I’m with the AI Model.
