Top NBA First Basket Scorer Odds, Picks & Predictions: Bucks vs. Bulls
The Bucks have won the tip 70 percent of the time while the Bulls have won the tip just 21 percent of the time. The Bucks are also getting the first shot 73 percent of the time while the Bulls have earned the first shot just 27 percent of the time.
The Bucks should be able to win the tip and score first. In the first meeting between the two teams, it was Brook Lopez who got the first bucket after the Bucks won the tip.
The Bucks spread out their offense early. Jrue Holiday has four first baskets while Giannis Antetokounmpo has six first baskets. However, Lopez has seven first shots, which leads the team. Still, he has only earned three first baskets on those seven first-shot attempts.
I’ll roll with Giannis in this spot.
Bet: Giannis Antetokounmpo (+310)
