The Bucks are the fifth-best team in the NBA in terms of shooting with 48.5%. They exceeded that number in the last five games, shooting 69% against the Suns last week. The Pelicans' season was not particularly successful, as evidenced by their record of 21 wins and 58 losses. They suffered their fourth consecutive defeat, losing to the Brooklyn Nets 119-114 in their most recent game. With the kind of form the Bucks are showing, we think they can beat the Pelicans by at least ten points, as they have done in the last three H2Hs at home.
