Milwaukee Bucks Game Preview: March 19 at Cleveland Cavaliers

Finale

For as much as the Bucks have struggled of late, the Cavaliers are far from their best form too. The Cavaliers are only 5-5 over their last 10 games, and they are right in the midst of the congested Eastern Conference playoff race.

The Cavaliers will start Monday night in third place, but with only three games separating them and the seventh place Bucks, this game could still have ramifications for both teams further down the line.

The season series is currently 2-1 in Cleveland’s favor, but with the most recent matchup coming way back in December, this should be a very different proposition for both teams. It won’t be easy, but if the Bucks want to continue to push for higher seeding, this is the kind of game they’ll have to sneak away from with a win.
