Welcome to Opposition Intel!
The Milwaukee Bucks have won seven of their last ten games and are building up a head of steam that should see them comfortably pull away from the teams below them in the Playoff race.
The next team that the Bucks will be looking to get past is the Brooklyn Nets who roll into the BMO Harris Bradley Center later this evening.
The Nets have had a disappointing season, and currently find themselves battling to grab one of the final post-season spots in the Eastern Conference. On top of that as the trade deadline nears, they find themselves at the center of buyout and trade rumors.
If that wasn’t enough to unsettle them, they need to prepare to face a rampant Giannis Antetokounmpo too!
