The Golden State Warriors’ dominant defense of the last decade is all but a distant memory at this point. 

With Milwaukee Bucks’ superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo looking like himself after returning from a calf injury, that Golden State defense should be exposed again tonight.

My Bucks vs. Warriors predictions and NBA picks trust in Giannis on Wednesday, January 10. 

Bucks vs Warriors prediction

Bucks vs Warriors best bet: Giannis Antetokounmpo Over 29.5 points (-115)

Giannis Antetokounmpo’s return from a calf injury has gone a bit under the radar, scoring at least 30 points in each of his last three games. In his first two games back, he finished with 29 and 24 points, both capped at 25 minutes.

The Milwaukee Bucks need everything they can get from their franchise cornerstone, scrapping for play-in position in the Eastern Conference.

They should get plenty tonight, going against a Golden State Warriors defense that has fallen to No. 17 in rating in the last month, down from No. 2 to start the season.

Our "from downtown" SGP: Not So Golden Anymore

The Warriors’ defense falling apart is not an oddity. This roster is flawed and aging.

Draymond Green is not the defensive menace he once was, and Jimmy Butler’s buy-in may be waning.

Betting Analyst

Douglas Farmer spends his days thinking about college football and his nights thinking about the NBA. His betting habits and coverage follow that same pattern. He covered Notre Dame football for various outlets from 2008 to 2024, most notably spending eight seasons as NBC Sports’ beat writer on the Irish. That was also when his gambling focus took off. Knowing there were veteran beat writers with three decades more experience than he had, Douglas found his niche by best recognizing Notre Dame’s standing in each year’s national landscape, a complex tapestry most easily understood and remembered via betting odds.

In 2021, that interest created a freelance opportunity with Covers, a role that eventually led to Douglas joining the company full-time in 2023. In the fall, Douglas will place five or six dozen bets each week, a disproportionate amount via BetRivers because the operator tends to have lines slightly different than the rest of the market. The same can be said of Circa Sports’ futures markets.

While Douglas is an avid NBA fan and covers the league throughout the year, the vast majority of his bets are on college football, because that is the biggest key to sports betting: Know what you do not know.
