NBA First Basket Betting Picks & Predictions for Friday: Knicks vs. Bucks

New York Knicks at Milwaukee Bucks

I like Jrue Holiday in this game for the Bucks. This was a spot that Khris Middleton was targeted in often last season, but with him out, it’s opened up first-field-goal opportunities for other players. Early returns have shown Jrue is becoming the new go-to target.

With the ball in his hands often, he’s been helping to set the pace for the offense. He is taking it upon himself on a team loaded with weapons to start the scoring from the tip. It’s been early, but he’s already recorded the first Milwaukee field goal in each game. I like him to maintain this trend.

Pick: Jrue Holiday (+500)
