The Milwaukee Bucks will be at home against the Oklahoma City Thunder for the teams' first meeting of this NBA season. The Bucks are currently second in the Eastern Conference while the Thunder are the top team out West. The Bucks have been inconsistent in recent weeks and have compiled a 4-4 record in their last eight games. They got back to winning ways last time out after losing in a top-of-the-table clash with Boston. They defeated the Nets 115-108 to kick off a three-game home stand. This was their 45th win of the season and saw them move two games clear of their closest challenger for second place. Giannis Antentokounmpo and Khris Middleton have been listed as ‘Questionable’ for this game. The Bucks have averaged 124.7 points over their last three matches.

The Thunder are in red-hot form. They have won seven of their last eight matches and are on a four-game winning run. This form has allowed them to maintain their lead in a hotly contested race for top spot in the West. Mike Daigneault’s men are currently half a game clear of their closest challengers the Nuggets. They have averaged 120 points over their last three games and defeated the Raptors 123-103 last time out. Jalen Williams scored 20 points in Toronto but he has been listed as questionable for this game. The Thunder have lost the last five matchups with the Bucks and haven’t won in Milwaukee since 2019.
