Nets vs Bucks Prediction & Pick
Beauchamp has been outstanding for Milwaukee on the offensive end, but he and every other player has shined on the defensive end even more. The Bucks have excelled along the perimeter, holding each of their first two Summer League foes under a 30.0% shooting mark from three-point range.
Brooklyn is a team that likes to push the pace, though, which should force Milwaukee to put more effort into transition defense. The Nets have three players averaging over 13.0 points per game so far in Brooks, Jalen Wilson and David Duke Jr. That kind of reliable scoring depth is hard to compete with.
I'll take the Nets in an upset here as they have the depth to find Milwaukee's defensive weak spots.
Final Score Prediction:'Nets: 91 | Bucks: 87
Nets vs Bucks Best Bet
This game could go either way, so taking the points with the Nets is the way to go. Brooklyn held a fourth quarter lead against Cleveland before blowing it, meaning they were only minutes from a 2-0 record. Milwaukee has yet to face a team with the kind of scoring depth that the Nets have and will finally be tested on defense. Expect adjustments to be made by both sides, resulting in a close clash.
