New Orleans Pelicans vs Milwaukee Bucks NBA Thursday Preview
This should be a great spot on the boards for Giannis Antetokounmpo.
Giannis has gone over 10.5 boards in three straight games. Tonight, he will face a continually depleted Pelicans squad, and the only concern is whether or not he gets enough minutes.
Sure, New Orleans is bad, but Milwaukee tends to play with its food.
The Bucks only beat New Orleans by four points a couple games ago. Although, Giannis was sidelined for that contest.
Even so, they have two double-digit wins in their last 10 games, covering the spread in seven of those games, the majority of which were competitive all the way through.
But ultimately, who is stopping Giannis on the boards? The answer should be “nobody.”
