Without rest, and after both teams recorded victories on Tuesday, the Cavaliers visit the Bucks on Wednesday, with Cleveland holding an 8.5-point advantage in the betting odds to beat Milwaukee.
The Cavs' newest addition, the respected and veteran James Harden, acquired from the Clippers, contributed 20 points to the Cavs' victory over the Knicks on Tuesday. Cleveland's coach has said that Harden's addition has renewed the team's confidence. On Tuesday, the Cavs won 109-94, placing them fourth in the Eastern Conference, and their road record is a healthy 17-11 this season.
That same Tuesday, the Bucks also won at Fiserv Forum, defeating the Miami Heat 128-117. There, Kevin Porter matched his season high of 32 points, while Bobby Portis and Ryan Rollins each contributed 21. Portis and Dieng hit key three-pointers down the stretch against Miami. With this win, the Bucks improved their record to 25-31, but remain in 11th place in the Eastern Conference.

Our Milwaukee Bucks vs Cleveland Cavaliers Prediction
The Bucks must believe they can do it even without Antetokounmpo; the Greek Freak doesn't even have a return date after his calf injury, but Milwaukee has won 7 of their last 9 games, all without the Greek superstar.
After the Cavs' marked dominance over the Bucks, Milwaukee's recent form and the fact that both teams now have some of the hottest offenses in the NBA suggest that the +8.5 handicap given to the Bucks is generous; they shouldn't be overtaken for losing by too many points on Wednesday.
Our prediction for Bucks vs Cavaliers is: Bucks +8.5.
