Timberwolves vs Bucks Game Preview and Analysis
Minnesota and Milwaukee meet again after a tight 103-100 Timberwolves win in late December. Milwaukee stayed within the number in that game as a large underdog, and the defensive tone carried through once again as the game stayed under the total.
The Timberwolves are coming off a one-point home win over San Antonio and have won five of their last six games. Even so, Minnesota faces potential challenges with Anthony Edwards expected to miss this game and Rudy Gobert facing a one-game suspension pending appeal. Gobert has been a major presence on the glass, averaging 13.5 rebounds per game in January.
Milwaukee continues to be difficult to trust in the betting market. After a solid road win over the Lakers, the Bucks followed it up by losing outright at home as a six-point favorite against a short-handed Denver team. Over the last few weeks, Milwaukee has alternated wins and losses without building momentum.

With Edwards out, Minnesota loses a chunk of offensive punch. At the same time, Milwaukee has slowed games down significantly, which keeps pointing back to a total that still feels a bit too high.
