The new look Brooklyn Nets take on the Milwaukee Bucks at the Barclays Center for this NBA Eastern Conference matchup on Tuesday night. The Nets will be looking to put an end to their current two game losing streak after dropping a close one in a 129-127 loss to Atlanta on Sunday. Brooklyn is just 2-4 since acquiring their new pieces in the trades of Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant. However, they are 2-1 during that stretch when playing on their home court and have an overall record of 18 wins and 11 losses at the Barclays Center this season. This will be a huge test as they welcome the NBA’s hottest team to the New York City borough. The Nets currently sit sixth in the East standings with a record of 34 wins and 26 losses. They have a good shot to make the playoffs if they can maintain even a .500 record in the final 22 games of the season.

The Bucks are looking unstoppable at the moment as they come into this contest sporting the longest winning streak of the 2022/23 NBA season at 14 games. Their last outing resulted in a slim 104-101 victory over the Suns in a rematch of the 2020/21 NBA Finals. Milwaukee are now a dominant 26-5 on their home court but will have to take their show on the road for one game before returning back to Cream City to host a visit from Orlando. The winning streak has shot the Bucks up the standings and sees them now trailing the first-place Boston Celtics by only half a game. The visitors boast a record of 43 wins and 17 losses, the second best in the entire NBA with a winning percentage of 71.7%.
