The Milwaukee Bucks host the Cleveland Cavaliers on Tuesday, seeking a second straight win after topping the Indiana Pacers over the weekend.
Current Form:
After a scorching start to the James Harden era in Cleveland, the Cavaliers have since lost six of their last 11 games, including a 120-130 loss to the Dallas Mavericks on March 15. Donovan Mitchell posted 26 points and 11 assists, and Max Strus fired 24 points off the bench. However, poor defense once again cost Cleveland a winnable game, allowing the Mavericks to drop 130 points on them.
The Milwaukee Bucks ended their four-game losing streak behind 31 points, 14 rebounds, and 8 assists from Giannis Antetokounmpo. The two-time NBA MVP returned from an ankle injury on Saturday, and he wasted no time dominating the Pacers, who played without Andrew Nembhard and Pascal Siakam. The bad news is Giannis could sit out again on Tuesday because of swelling in his ankle.

Our Milwaukee Bucks vs Cleveland Cavaliers Prediction
Fearless Forecast: The Cavs hang on to beat the Bucks 124-118
The Bucks’ chance of earning at least an ATS win against the Cavs will hinge on the availability of Giannis Antetokounmpo in this game. After posting a near triple-double against the Pacers, Giannis is reportedly questionable for Tuesday’s ballgame against the Cavs because of a swollen ankle. The Cavs are aching to bounce back following a loss to the Dallas Mavericks 120-130 on their home floor. Cleveland is 2-5 ATS in its last 7 games against an opponent in the Central Division and 4-11 SU in its last 15 games when playing on the road against Milwaukee. Meanwhile, the Bucks are 11-4 SU in their last 15 games when playing at home against Cleveland.
Our betting prediction for the Cleveland Cavaliers vs. the Milwaukee Bucks: The Bucks +10.5 points
