AM: What’s your final prediction for how this game will play out?
JW: How about that Michael Carter-Williams? The former Philadelphia 76ers player has been doing pretty big things for Milwaukee the past few games. He’s already played his former team last season, but this season he has not seen game time against them. Carter-Williams missed game against Philly in early November was his first missed in five games.
Since then MCW had some stretches of mediocrity and perhaps some poor play, but looking at his past several games, he’s been hard to defend. Since December 12th, he’s shooing 52.5% from the field and scoring 19.4 points per game. He’s also dishing out 5.4 assists per game. He’s also grabbing 5.6 rebounds.
What I’m trying to say is, despite going 4-6 over the last 10, MCW has been consistent. And this would be the perfect game for him to pop off, against his former team.
The Bucks take this one by an eight point margin, handing Philly their 30th loss of the season.
