The Milwaukee Bucks, sitting at 4-8, are set to challenge the Charlotte Hornets, who are 4-7, in a Saturday afternoon showdown at the Spectrum Center. Tip-off is scheduled for 3:00 PM ET. Both teams come into this matchup with some much-needed rest under their belts, as the Bucks played three days ago and the Hornets have enjoyed a four-day hiatus. This rest could play a pivotal role in the performance of both squads.

Although the Bucks are on the road, they come into this contest as slight favorites, evidenced by a spread of Bucks -3.5 and a moneyline of -165. This implies a win probability of 60% for Milwaukee.

They'll need to overcome this away-game slump to secure a victory in Charlotte.

The Hornets, although playing on their home court, are underdogs with a moneyline of +140, giving them an implied win probability of 40%. They've had their own struggles recently, losing seven of their last ten outings. In their previous game, the Hornets were handed a lopsided 114-89 defeat by the Orlando Magic. Meanwhile, the Bucks are coming off a win against the Detroit Pistons, prevailing 127-120.

For those interested in player prop bets, LaMelo Ball's Points and Rebounds market has been attracting attention. The over for this prop has seen significant movement, opening at Over 32.5 (-120) and moving to 33.5 (-115), highlighting bettors' confidence in Ball's potential impact.
