The defending Champions Bucks or a squad figuring out its identity in Boston Celtics? At any rate, you can find injury reports, statistics, Fantasy teams, and much more in this article.
Host: Boston Celtics Visitors: Milwaukee Bucks Match Timing: 13 November, @ 06:00 AM Venue: TD Garden
The Boston Celtics have struggled all season long. The team is in the middle of Points Per Game and shoots around 43% from the floor with Jayson Tatum especially struggling right now. The defense is not among the elite and figures and the FG% of opponents is usually better than what Celtics shoot. When will Boston overcome its inefficiencies?
Bucks have looked wayward this season for one simple reason, their key players have missed a lot of games. However, in the long run, things don’t look too dire as Grayson Allen and Pat Connaughton have also shown the ability to come up with big games. With Antetokounmpo carrying the major load, can Holiday ease and won’t the team gain steam once Middleton returns?
