Milwaukee Bucks Game Preview: March 9 vs New York Knicks

The Milwaukee Bucks will look to get back to winning ways with the visit of the struggling New York Knicks on Friday night.

Having played, and struggled, their way through the NBA’s toughest schedule since the All-Star break, the Milwaukee Bucks should finally get some kind of respite on Friday night.

The New York Knicks will make the trip to Milwaukee, and with the Bucks’ recent excellent record against the Knicks, it should present a great opportunity to get back on track.

Currently ranked 11th in the East with a record of 24-41, the Knicks have gone 1-9 since their star player Kristaps Porzingis tore his ACL in the last meeting between these teams back in early February.

With that considered, the Knicks open up a stretch of schedule when the Bucks are faced with a host of lottery-bound opponents, which should give Milwaukee an excellent chance to regain their form and start climbing up the standings once again.

The Knicks still have players to be wary of though, and beating them may well still require an improved performance from what Milwaukee has shown of late.

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