In one of the more exciting games of Friday night, the Milwaukee Bucks roll into the Target Center to take on the Minnesota Timberwolves as -3 favorites. Get our Mil/Min winner here!

Despite the league’s second best record, the Milwaukee Bucks have been unable to string together long win streaks, and injured players coming in and out of their rotation is only adding to the challenge of building momentum. Can the Bucks get it going vs the surging Celtics? KC has your NBA pick.

Houston may have finally snapped back to reality and righted their sinking ship as they absolutely dismantled the dreadful Wizards. They’ve won five games in a row versus teams that were pre-season picks for playoff spots. Can they flex some muscle vs the 13-16 Heat? Sportsbooks have the Rockets as 3.5 point favorites.

The Mavericks are only 2-11 straight up on the road. When you couple this with the notion that Los Angeles has overall been in good form in the Staples Center at 9-4 SU this season, the Mavs aren’t that appealing. However this Mavs team is not the same team that was on the road last month. Can the Mavs keep it within 3? Franks has your NBA pick.

It seems crazy that a team that is on pace to double its projected win total is in line to fire their coach, but the relationship between Dave Joerger and the front office has gone nuclear. De’Aaron Fox is currently in the middle of a break-out sophomore season, and 24 hours after calling him “the next Russell Westbrook,” Joerger decided to play him 6 total minutes and allow his second-unit to get blown off of the floor. Will he set Fox and Friends lose on the the 4-point-favored Thunder.
