The Golden State Warriors and the Milwaukee Bucks will meet on Friday at Bradley Center. The game will tip-off around 8 pm EST and will be broadcast nationally on ESPN.
Oddsmakers opened the Warriors as -4.5-point favorites versus the Bucks, while the game’s total opened at 222. The total has inched up to 222.5 and a few 223’s are out there.
Golden State star Seth Curry sat out Golden State’s 125-106 loss to the Los Angeles Clippers Wednesday. He sprained his right ankle during the Warriors’ shoot-around session earlier in the day. He will be evaluated again after today’s workout.
The Warriors are opening up a five-game road trip. The trips starts with a back-to-back set in Milwaukee and Toronto. The two-time All-Star might get an extra day of rest just to be safe on the injury.
Curry had a injury similar to this and he was out 11 straight games last month. Golden State has won the five games since Curry Returned. He averaged 35.2 points on 57 percent shooting. Curry made 33 of 62 3-point attempts before sitting out Wednesday.
Golden State was also without Klay Thompson Wednesday. It was just a scheduled off-day.
Bucks Have Great Success Against Western Conference
The Bucks are 12-5 against Western Conference teams this season. They are 4-0 against the Pacific Division. They Bucks are hoping the dominant second half of their 110-103 victory over Orlando Wednesday night kick the team into high gear.
Giannis Antetokounmpo scored a team-high 26. He scored 13 in an aggressive third quarter effort.
The Bucks struggled shooting from beyond the arc, as they have all season. Milwaukee made just 4 of 19 3-point attempts. They have connected on only 26.5 percent of its shots from behind the arc over the last three games.
The Warriors have won three straight games and seven of their last eight meetings with the Bucks. Milwaukee’s only victory over Golden State during that stretch was when they broke Golden State’s historic 24-game winning streak to open the 2015-16 season.
