Suns vs. Bucks: How to watch live stream, TV channel, NBA start time

Through 3 Quarters

Only one more quarter stands between the Phoenix Suns and the win they were favored to collect going into this night. Three quarters in and their offense has really been able to impose its will, dominating the Milwaukee Bucks 99-79.

Phoenix has enjoyed the tag-team combination of point guard Chris Paul and center Deandre Ayton. The former has posted a double-double on 15 dimes and 13 points in addition to five boards, while the latter has 23 points along with seven rebounds. This is the third consecutive game in which Paul has had at least 11 assists. One thing to keep an eye out for is Devin Booker’s foul situation as he currently sits at four.

The top scorers for Milwaukee have been power forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (18 points) and point guard Jrue Holiday (17 points).

The Bucks have been used to carrying a lead into the fourth quarter lately, so we’ll see how they respond to the deficit.

What to Know

The Milwaukee Bucks’ road trip will continue as they head to Footprint Center at 10 p.m. ET on Thursday to face off against the Phoenix Suns. Phoenix will need to watch out since the Bucks have now posted big point totals in their last three contests.

Milwaukee had enough points to win and then some against the Los Angeles Lakers on Tuesday, taking their game 131-116. Power forward Giannis Antetokounmpo had a dynamite game for Milwaukee; he almost dropped a triple-double on 44 points, 14 boards, and eight dimes.

Meanwhile, even if it wasn’t a dominant performance, Phoenix beat the Philadelphia 76ers 114-109 on Tuesday. It was another big night for Phoenix’s shooting guard Devin Booker, who had 35 points.

The Bucks are expected to lose this next one by 3. They are currently four-for-four against the spread in their most recent games, however, a trend bettors might want to take into account.

Milwaukee is now 35-21 while the Suns sit at 44-10. Two offensive numbers to keep in mind before tip-off: Milwaukee comes into the matchup boasting the fourth most points per game in the league at 113. Phoenix has displayed some offensive firepower of their own as they enter the contest with a 47.80% field goal percentage, good for second best in the league.
