Spread: Hornets -1.5
3 Star play on the Hornets covering: The Hornets battled like crazy on the road against a fully healthy Bucks team in early December. Now, they get a shorthanded version of the Bucks at home for a pair of games over the next three days. Although Giannis Antetokounmpo is capable of singlehandedly carrying Milwaukee to victory, I've got the Hornets in this one. They see this as a real opportunity to make a statement and a packed Spectrum Center will give them a little extra boost as well.
Over/Under: 234.5
1 Star play on the over: I don't like this total mainly because I don't know how efficient the Bucks offense will be down so many guys. That said, the Hornets are a struggle to watch on the defensive end of the floor and Milwaukee should still be able to get some points near the cup. I would lean toward the over but not enough to make it a play.
