Hands down the best game on Wednesday’s slate is this cross-conference battle between the Bucks and the red-hot Kings.
Since firing Mike Brown, Sacramento has gone on a seven-game winning streak as they continue this tough road trip in Milwaukee.
Giannis Antetekounmpo is probable to play, and the Bucks will need every bit of him on the court as they battle a Kings side that has allowed the fourth-fewest rebounds over their last four games.
With wins over Dallas, Boston, and Miami, there’s been nothing fluky about Sacramento’s winning streak, while it’s worth noting their 5-5-2 record at the line against opponents from the Eastern Conference.

This is another ‘nothing’ kind of game for the Bulls, one they really should be winning.
Chicago flirted with a win over the Kings on Sunday before falling away in the fourth quarter, but this does look a more suitable matchup against a Pelicans side that has struggled to defend the three-ball all year.
As we know, the Bulls live and die by three pointers, ranking top five in the league in percentage made and threes attempted.
With the Pelicans heading back home to host the Mavs on Thursday, this looks a nice spot to play on a couple of markets favouring Chicago.
