Milwaukee arrives at Madison Square Garden with a 1-9 record, six straight defeats and the bottom spot in the Eastern Conference. New York sits fifth at 5-4 after three consecutive wins. Giannis Antetokounmpo now plays in Miami, so the Bucks lean on Tyler Herro and Jaime Jaquez Jr. for their scoring. See why our match prediction backs a low-scoring NBA game.
The Knicks have rebuilt their identity on defense. They held Brooklyn to 90 points and Cleveland to 97 during the winning run, and their 104.2 points allowed per game underlines this total. The Bucks, meanwhile, tell a different but supportive story.
Milwaukee's defense leaks 121.6 points per game, yet their offense produces only 108.4 without Giannis. Six of their seven defeats across the last eight games came by double figures, so games break open rather than turning into shootouts.
And that is where the tension resolves. Milwaukee's results average 230 combined points, which makes the Over look tempting on paper. The Knicks tell the opposite tale at 214, and they have finished below 226.5 in six of their last eight. Pair that defense with a Bucks offense stuck near 108 and this game projects to roughly 222.

Our New York Knicks vs Milwaukee Bucks Prediction
Everything about this game points toward a Knicks side controlling the tempo and a Bucks team that will underperform in front of the paint. Milwaukee's 1-9 record and six straight defeats show a roster still searching for an identity after Giannis left for Miami.
And New York's defense further gives the Bucks little room to push the total higher. The combined scoring averages sit at 218.3 points, which leaves more than eight points of cushion below this line. Hence, our New York Knicks vs Milwaukee Bucks prediction is Under 226.5 Points.
