Milwaukee Bucks Game Preview: February 27 vs Washington Wizards

In a week packed with rival match-ups, the Milwaukee Bucks will get started with a home game against the Washington Wizards on Tuesday night.

Having battled through two overtime games since returning from the All-Star break, the Milwaukee Bucks are back in action on Tuesday night and would ideally like to pick up a much more comfortable win against the Washington Wizards.

By no means will that be an easy task, though, as the Wizards are one of the NBA’s most in-form teams over the last month or so.

Dealing with the absence of John Wall, the Wizards have locked into a very team-centric focus over their last 12 games and seem to have stumbled into a style of play that really maximizes the ability of their players.

With Washington currently in fourth place in the East, the Bucks sit just 1.5 games behind them making this a contest that could have really significant implications come the end of the regular season.

Having played against each other three times already this year, the Bucks hold a 2-1 lead in the season series, meaning this game will give them an excellent chance to clinch a tiebreaker that could certainly come into deciding playoff seeding in the coming months.

With all of that in mind, let’s take a closer look at the action ahead, and how things might play out on Tuesday night.
