The Milwaukee Bucks (39-30) visit the Sacramento Kings (35-34) on Saturday, March 22, 2025, at the Golden 1 Center.

The Bucks will be without star guard Damian Lillard, who is dealing with right calf soreness. Milwaukee still has a winning record of 7-4 when playing without Lillard. However, things haven't been right in their camp as of late.

Milwaukee has lost five of their last eight games. They lost four of those losses by double digits. The silver lining is that Giannis Antetokounmpo is still producing 26.6 points on 59.8% True Shooting. The Bucks will again lean on their top star, especially with Lillard sitting out.

Things have been ugly in the Kings' camp, too. They have lost five of their last seven games. In that span, Sacramento's defensive rating has decreased to 129.1, a 13-point drop from their season average of 116.0. Their defense has been an Achilles heel throughout the season.

It also doesn't help that Kings star Domantas Sabonis is sitting out against the Bucks. Sabonis, who is averaging 19.2 points, 13.9 rebounds, and 6.2 assists, is out with a sprained ankle. Any team with a depleted frontcourt dealing with Giannis could be in trouble.

Sacramento Kings - Milwaukee Bucks Key Points

  1. The Bucks won their first matchup against the Kings, 130-115.
  2. The Kings are missing Domantas Sabonis due to an ankle injury.
  3. The Kings have lost five of their last seven games.
  4. The Bucks are 7-4 this season without Damian Lillard.

Our Sacramento Kings vs Milwaukee Bucks Prediction

In their first matchup, Giannis Antetokounmpo feasted on the Kings' defense with a triple-double of 33 points, 11 rebounds, and 10 assists. With star center Domantas Sabonis out in this game, Sacramento will have their hands full against the Greek Freak.

Even without Damian Lillard, Giannis and the Bucks should take advantage of the Kings' faltering defense. It might not even be a close game at all. Our prediction for the Sacramento Kings vs Milwaukee Bucks match is: Bucks (+1.5) cover the spread.
