Washington Wizards vs. Milwaukee Bucks Game Predictions

Inside the Wizards staff gives you their predictions and analysis for the game against the Milwaukee Bucks.

The Washington Wizards (2-10) are at home to play the Milwaukee Bucks (9-4) at Capital One Arena in Washington D.C. Tip-off is at 7:00 PM EST.

Two teams headed in completely different directions is a great way to describe the difference between the Wizards and Bucks right now.

Why Damian Lillard Doesn’t Like Jordan Poole

Washington has lost five straight games now while this new look Milwaukee squad is looking like it's settling in and have a four-game win streak going.

Let's see how the Inside the Wizards staff views the game tonight.

Gage Sheets: Bucks 140 Wizards 122 (Prediction Record: 7-2)

This is going to be a blowout. 

Milwaukee doesn't play great defense or rebound the ball well, but I don't think Washington will take advantage. 

Those two things might matter down the stretch for the Bucks in the playoffs, but it won't tonight. 

This game might be over by the end of the first quarter, but hopefully that means the young guys will get plenty of run time tonight.

It will end up being the sixth straight loss for the Wizards but there are a couple of opportunities to get some wins in the next week.

What Does Damian Lillard Being In The East Mean For Wizards

This will be a tough one to watch. The Wizards can't seem to get out of their own way and this match-up won't help. The Wizards have to see the Bucks twice this week and unless head coach Adrian Griffin decides to sit some of his players, I agree with Gage that this will be a blowout. That doesn't mean I expect the Wizards to start out flat. They still need to play hard and make adjustments where needed. However, this could be a rough night for the Wizards.
