As the Milwaukee Bucks look to build on a two-game win streak, they’ll face off against the Miami Heat on Saturday night in a battle with playoff implications in the Eastern Conference. The Bucks pulled off a 126-113 comeback win over the Philadelphia 76ers on Thursday, fueled by a historic performance from Giannis Antetokounmpo.
Antetokounmpo delivered the first 35-point, 20-assist, 17-rebound game in NBA history, stepping up with Damian Lillard sidelined. Milwaukee improved to 42-34 and will look to complete a four-game season sweep over the Heat, having won the previous three matchups by an average of nearly 13 points.

Best Giannis Antetokounmpo Prop Bets on DraftKings Sportsbook
Giannis Antetokounmpo over 47.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists (-120)
Antetokounmpo is averaging 34.3 points, 12 assists and 10.3 rebounds over his last three games, clearing this combined line in each. With Lillard remaining sidelined, Antetokounmpo continues to carry a more significant playmaking burden.
After Thursday’s win, Bucks assistant head coach Darvin Ham addressed the star’s expanded role.
“All the great guys that have come through this league, they make the people around them great as well,” Ham said. “That’s something he has to do until we get (Damian Lillard) back. He’s got to be the leader of our team in terms of making plays.”
Miami is still dealing with multiple injuries, with Kevin Love, Nikola Jovic and Andrew Wiggins ruled out, and Tyler Herro is listed as questionable with a right thigh contusion. Herro led the Heat with 35 points in their last game, but the team lost on a Ja Morant buzzer-beater.
Antetokounmpo is averaging 30.4 points, 11.9 rebounds and 7.9 assists in the seven games he’s played since Lillard’s injury. With increased usage and Miami short-handed, the over on 47.5 combined points, rebounds and assists offers value for one of the league’s most dominant forces.
