The New Orleans Pelicans will try to cover the spread for the fifth time in seven games, as they visit the Giannis-less Milwaukee Bucks on Wednesday at Fiserv Forum.

Recommended Pick: The Bucks -4.5 points

Potential Payout: $205 for every $105 bet (-105).

Current Form:

The Pelicans will roll into Wednesday’s ball game as -4.5-point favorites against the Bucks, who could potentially ship their MVP, Giannis Antetokounmpo, to another team after the February 5 trade deadline. New Orleans has lost three of its last four games, including a 95-102 defeat to the red-hot Charlotte Hornets. Trey Murphy, who averages 21.6 points per game this season, dropped 27 on 50 percent shooting in the loss.

The Bucks earned their first win in six games after trouncing the Chicago Bulls, 131-115. With Giannis Antetokounmpo still sidelined due to a calf injury, Kyle Kuzma delivered 31 points, and Ryan Rollins added 21 points to pace the Bucks, who converted 52 percent of their field-goal attempts. Milwaukee is 1-5 ATS in its last 6 games and 1-6 ATS in its last 7 games at home.
