What to Know

The Bucks will be playing the full four quarters on Friday, but they're expected to have things wrapped up well before that. They will be playing at home against the Toronto Raptors at 8:00 p.m. ET at Fiserv Forum. Given that the pair suffered a loss in their last game, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this match.

The defenses reigned supreme when the Bucks and the Grizzlies played on Wednesday, rewarding bettors who took the risk on the low 217.5-point over/under. The Bucks fell 111-101 to the Grizzlies. The defeat unfortunately continues a disappointing trend for Milwaukee in their matchups with Memphis: they've now lost five in a row.

Meanwhile, the Raptors' recent rough patch got a bit rougher on Wednesday after their 15th straight loss. They took a serious blow against the Timberwolves, falling 133-85. The result shouldn't come as a shock considering that's the fewest points Toronto has scored all season.

Milwaukee's defeat dropped their record down to 47-29. As for Toronto, their loss dropped their record down to 23-53.

Keep an eye on the arc in Friday's game: The Bucks havee made nailing deep shots look easy this year this season, having averaged 14.3 threes per game. It's a different story for the Raptors, though, as they've been averaging only 11.5. Given the Bucks' sizable advantage in that area, the Raptors will need to find a way to close that gap.

The Bucks strolled past the Raptors in their previous meeting back in November of 2023 by a score of 128-112. Will the Bucks repeat their success, or do the Raptors have a better game plan this time around? We'll find out soon enough.
