Bucks at Thunder notable injuries
Thunder: Chet Holmgren is out due to foot surgery. Aleksej Pokusevski is questionable due to shoulder bursitis.

Advice and prediction
Over the past several seasons, the Bucks have had the Thunder’s number — winning four consecutive games including three by double digits. I expect that trend to continue on Wednesday.
It’s not a coincidence Shai Gilgeous-Alexander had his worst game of the season against the Bucks. In eight career games against the Bucks, Gilgeous-Alexander averaged 19.3 points on 42.9% shooting.
The Bucks’ length and defensive talent is specially designed to stop a player with Gilgeous-Alexander’s scoring profile of attacking the paint and being a drive-heavy scorer.
The Bucks easily cover the spread and should go over the over-under.
Prediction: Bucks 117, Thunder 99
