Milwaukee Bucks vs Denver Nuggets: Current situation
Overall the state of the Bucks is really good right now, even though they just got their 4-game win streak snapped in Houston in what was a tight game. Bobby Portis not playing over the next 20 games due to suspension will be a tough pill to swallow, so the Bucks will need other role players to step up if they want to keep hold of that 4th seed in the Eastern Conference.
Denver just got overtaken in the 2nd seed by the Memphis Grizzlies, but this veteran team is smart enough to not let that bother them. Overall they’ve won 10 of 11 games, slowly building up their form as we enter the final 25 or so games of the regular season. The only blemish in their recent run is a home loss to the Lakers in which Nikola Jokic had one of his worst games of the season. He has bounced back in a huge fashion since, so it’s safe to say that did not have any long term damage on the team.
Milwaukee Bucks Stats & Form
Despite allowing just 100 points, the Bucks fell on the road in Houston on Tuesday night. Giannis Antetokounmpo did his best with 27 points and 10 rebounds, but without proper help from Damian Lillard who was just 7-for-22 from the field the Bucks just couldn’t match the offensive output by the Rockets. Rebounding was also a big issue with Houston winning that battle 53 to 37, grabbing an alarming 16 offensive rebounds.
Denver Nuggets Stats & Form
A mesmerizing performance by 3-time MVP Nikola Jokic gave the Nuggets their 18th road win in their latest game at Indiana on Monday. The Joker spread the wealth with 19 assists, but as a team the Nuggets finished with 39 of them which is a number that head coach Michael Malone has to be proud of. Even with just a 8-for-21 effort from downtown the Nuggets were able to win that game without any issues.
Milwaukee Bucks vs Denver Nuggets: Head-to-Head
Thursday’s game will be the 106th regular season meeting between the two teams. The last 4 regular season series were split, with neither team being able to separate themselves. Interestingly enough, 8 of the last 10 meetings were decided by double-digits so we could be in for a blowout win for one of the teams on Thursday.
Milwaukee Bucks – Denver Nuggets Odds
Backing Nikola Jokic and his Nuggets will get you odds of 4/5 for a road win here. If you like the Bucks at home, odds of 5/4 are available.
The point total has been set at 225.5 points, with odds of 10/11 supporting either the over or the under.

Betting tip and prediction: Milwaukee Bucks vs Denver Nuggets (27.02.2025)
Is there anything Nikola Jokic cannot do? NBA analysts and fans in general were left in awe after his monster night in the win over Indiana a couple of nights ago. The Joker decided to get as many assists as possible in that game, finishing with a career high 19 dimes. Only Wilt Chamberlain has had a game with more assists as a center in NBA history, which just highlights the level of dominance we are seeing by the Joker right now. Will the Bucks have an answer for him? It is hard to say – he is averaging 28 points, 10.8 rebounds and 11.4 assists per game in the last 5 meetings. Brook Lopez is a big body down low, but he simply does not have the agility to counter the 3-time MVP and this is a big advantage for the Nuggets here. Milwaukee’s depth has taken a blow after the suspension of Bobby Portis and it showed big time in their most recent loss at Houston. In order to beat these Nuggets you have to have solid production across the board and we are just not sure the Bucks have that at the moment. They are very top heavy with Giannis and Dame taking the majority of shots, Jamal Murray’s ascent could cancel out Lillard’s production here. Denver is 4-1 ATS in the last 5 meetings, plus they’ve won 10 of 13 road games and have covered in 4 of 5 visits to Milwaukee. We are backing the Nuggets in this one.
