Check out my Bucks vs. 76ers same-game parlay predictions for the season-opening matchup on Oct. 23.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Parlay: Bucks moneyline + Maxey over 2.5 threes + Antetokounmpo over 29.5 points (+280)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bucks moneyline (-167):<\/strong> There are key players missing on both sides of this matchup, but Philadelphia’s absences are more notable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Embed: #98021<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Joel Embiid, the 2022-23 MVP, won’t play on Wednesday. Last year, the Sixers went 16-27 without him in the lineup. Paul George also won’t suit up for Philly, putting his debut on hold after he hyperextended his knee in the preseason.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Khris Middleton isn’t expected to play for the Bucks, but that’s not as significant of a loss. Milwaukee won a pair of games against Philadelphia last year with Middleton on the sidelines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In fact, the Bucks have won four in a row against the Sixers and are 4-1 on the road against Philly since the start of the 2021-22 season. Without Embiid or George, I don’t see the Sixers winning. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

SGP legs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Maxey over 2.5 threes (-275):<\/strong> Maxey earned Most Improved Player honours last season, and the expectations will be greater from the jump for the fifth-year point guard \u2014 especially with two of his star teammates sitting out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Embed: #98020<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maxey’s 3-point shot volume has climbed in every year of his career. He attempted 1.7 threes per game as a rookie, then 4.1, 6.2 and finally 8.1 a season ago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I don’t expect the season-over-season growth to continue, but he’ll always have a fair shot at cashing this prop if he’s attempting around 8.0 threes per night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maxey went over this line in 43 of 70 games (61.4%) a season ago, and he averaged 2.7 threes in 34 games without Embiid, per StatMuse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Antetokounmpo over 29.5 points (-103):<\/strong> It’s been a few years since he’s won MVP, but Giannis hasn’t slowed down one bit as a scorer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Embed: #98019<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over the past two seasons, the Greek Freak has averaged 30.7 PPG and received first-team All-NBA acclaim both times. Last year, he posted the best effective FG rate of his career (62.4%). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Without George, a four-time All-Defensive Team selection, and Embiid, a hulking presence at 7 feet and 280 pounds, I think Giannis will have a clear path to a 30-piece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Giannis scored 30-plus points in two of three games against Philly last season, including his lone game at Wells Fargo Center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
