Despite their average record of 5-5, Milwaukee is a team that I believe to be a top team in the East. They have a good mix of young and experienced talent (Giannis Antetokounmpo, Khris Middleton, and Greg Monroe) that makes them a competitive team on a gamely basis.
As much as I would like to see Sacramento achieve another statement win, I do not foresee a victory here. With the talent that the Bucks have, plus being well coached by Jason Kidd (in my opinion a superb coach), I sadly see this matchup resulting in a Kings loss to conclude their road trip. (Road Trip Record: 3-2)
