With the All-Star Break looming, the Milwaukee Bucks may already be checked out, readying for flights to beaches. The Oklahoma City Thunder, counterintuitively, may be more focused simply as reserves get more opportunities amid injuries.
My Bucks vs. Thunder predictions bet on one of those reserves, not usually seen in NBA picks but now front and center on Thursday, February 12.
Bucks vs Thunder prediction
Bucks vs Thunder best bet: Aaron Wiggins Over 17.5 points (+100)
It should be a surprise if the Oklahoma City Thunder play Jalen Williams tonight after aggravating his hamstring last night in Phoenix.
He has impressed in his two games back from injury, but stressing any muscular issue tonight would be foolish.
In his and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander’s absences, someone has to handle the ball for OKC. Enter Aaron Wiggins. His last two games as a starter featured 17 and 20 points, both just last week between Gilgeous-Alexander’s injury and Williams’s return.
With them both again sidelined, expect Wiggins to pour it in before heading to a beach for a week.
