Golden State is playing on the second half of a back-to-back set, and Steph Curry is likely to sit out due to fatigue. That leaves the door open for Butler to take over as a scorer, rebounder, and facilitator.
Over the last six, Butler has averaged 17.7 points, 6.7 rebounds, and 6.8 assists, good for 31.2 PRA. He’s hit the Over in four of those, and I expect him to make it five of seven tonight. The Warriors lack a true bucket-getter outside of Curry, and the next man up is Butler, who can wear that hat when needed.
He’s been great as a passer and rebounder already, and he should see the ball in his hands a bit more with the Chef taking the night off.
📊 Best Jimmy Butler prop bet odds
- Points: 19.5 (Over: -125 | Under: -105 via bet365)
- Rebounds: 5.5 (Over: -144 | Under: +108 via FanDuel)
- Assists: 5.5 (Over: -154 | Under: +112 via Caesars)
🏀 Giannis Antetokounmpo Over 11.5 rebounds (-170) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Best odds: -170 via FanDuel ($10 to win $5.88)
The Greek Freak is averaging 12.1 boards per game this season, and he’s pulled down at least 12 rebounds in 32 of 55 games, including three of his last four.
Over his last 12, Antetokounmpo has corralled 12.7 rebounds, and he gets a phenomenal matchup with an undersized Warriors frontcourt tonight.
📊 Best Giannis Antetokounmpo prop bet odds
🏀 Giannis Antetokounmpo Over 6.5 assists (-106) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Best odds: -106 via Caesars ($10 to win $9.43)

Giannis’ scoring has cooled from 31.8 points per game before the All-Star break to 26.5 after the break. He’s stepped back as an individual scorer but excelled in getting his teammates the ball.
Over his last 12, Giannis has averaged 6.9 assists and hit the Over eight times. That includes four straight games with at least seven assists.
🎯 Expert Bucks vs. Warriors score prediction & AI projections
🔮 Expert score prediction: Bucks 113, Warriors 104
🤖 AI score prediction: Warriors 118, Bucks 114
🔮 Expert score prediction: Bucks 113, Warriors 104
The Warriors will likely be without Curry tonight, and without him, the team doesn’t have enough firepower to hang with Giannis, Dame, and Co. Golden State’s available players will be back in action for the second game in as many nights, and the healthy and rested Bucks have the advantage here.
Golden State is 16-18-1 ATS at home, 4-5 as a home underdog, and 12-12-2 against Eastern Conference opponents. Milwaukee is 23-23-1 as a favorite and 7-11 ATS as a road favorite.
The Warriors have hit the Under in 13 of 26 against the Eastern Conference, and Milwaukee has gone Under in 13 of 22 against the West. Golden State’s offense may struggle to put up points without Curry, so I’ll take Milwaukee to win and cover on the road.
