NYK vs MIL Dream11 Prediction NBA Live, Fantasy Basketball Dream11 Team, Top Picks and Tips for New York Knicks vs Milwaukee Bucks

NYK vs MIL Dream11: Now, with COVID-19 protocols surging, the list of last-minute absentees only spikes at an alarming rate, challenging the roster balance, and also the way we predict or decide upon lineups. Anyway, in this game, the New York Knicks welcome the Milwaukee Bucks for a classic Eastern Conference battle. The Knicks are two games under the 50% win mark, losing five out of six games while the Bucks are seven games above the mark.

New York has had a disappointing season and has been unconvincing especially on the offensive end. The team has not been able to find an option who can put up big scoring numbers consistently and there are not many games where two-three players together help the cause, it is usually just individual performances.

Milwaukee Bucks are playing some hard-nosed basketball right now and unlike the Knicks, they have too many options. The Bucks are deep and can run teams out of the game despite missing two of their starters, the spark is the same. Well, when you have your multiple reserves putting up 15+ points regularly, you are in for a long haul.

Host: New York Knicks
Visitors: Milwaukee Bucks
Match Timing: 12 December, @ 10:30 PM
Venue: Madison Square Garden

NBA Projections, Stats & Analysis

Knicks: They are going nowhere
Knicks have been a frustrating team. Unlike last season, they have not built a defensive identity, and bringing in veteran guards like Kemba Walker and Evan Fournier hasn’t brought much semblance. Kemba is going to be somewhere else soon, Fournier hasn’t been as effective either. Randle, Barrett, and Rose are also not as efficient as they’d hope to be while there has been some promise from athletic Obi Toppin. It is like every player except Obi has regressed rather than built on last season’s gains. New York may need some big-time trade to turn the season around, a playmaker in order?

Bucks: Deep and dominating
Milwaukee can change the course of the game through its top-notch depth and well, when you have four starters capable of scoring around 20, resources are not in short supply. With Lopez and DiVincenzo out, Portis and Connaughton have raised their games, and sure to have a team like the Bucks is a coach’s dream. Unlike the Knicks, Milwaukee has seen its main players in Middleton, Antetokounmpo, and Holiday performing consistently and many players have stitched together superb performances in tandem.

NBA Scores, Fantasy Basketball Top Picks

Giannis Antetokounmpo(MIL)
Points: 41
Rebounds: 17
Assists: 05
Steals: 03
Blocks: 02
The imposing Forward-Center hybrid Giannis for me is an MVP candidate just like Curry for the numbers he is injecting game in and game out. The above stat line says it all! He is one of the options for Star/Pro Player in the Dream11 NBA fantasy scenario.
Expected Fantasy Points Range: 55-79

Julius Randle(NYK)
Points: 13
Rebounds: 14
Assists: 05
Steals: 01
Randle has not been playing as assertive offensively as he was last season but he is still a key all-around player. Don’t know what to expect from him scoring-wise but he can surely get his hands on 8-14 rebounds and 4-8 assists a game regularly.
Expected Fantasy Points Range: 40-55

Jrue Holiday (MIL)
Points: 12
Rebounds: 03
Assists: 07
Steals: 01
Blocks: 01
Jrue Holiday’s presence on both the offensive and defensive end has helped Bucks build a solid guard position. The guard usually figures in the 15-20 points, 3-6 rebounds, and 5-9 assists range.
Expected Fantasy Points Range: 34-44

RJ Barrett(NYK)
Points: 19
Rebounds: 06
Assists: 01
RJ Barrett is a two-way player at the off-guard/wing position whose shooting has been up-and-down throughout the season. Still, a 13-19 points scoring range, 5-8 rebounds are routine for the player.
Expected Fantasy Points Range: 25-37

Khris Middleton(MIL)
Points: 21
Rebounds: 08
Assists: 05
Steals: 01
Middleton is one of the most dependable players at the Wing position who has helped the Bucks cause for years now. The Forward has now scored 20 or more in all the six games this month.
Expected Fantasy Points Range: 32-39

Derrick Rose(NYK)
Points: 11
Rebounds: 06
Assists: 04
Rose’s scoring has come down compared to last season but he is the only bonafide playmaker in the lineup right now. These days he is hovering in the 10-13 points range and 4-6 assists range.
Expected Fantasy Points Range: 22-29
