BOS vs MIL Dream11 Prediction NBA Live Fantasy Basketball Dream11 Team, Top Picks and Tips for Boston Celtics vs Milwaukee Bucks

BOS vs MIL Dream11: Hello NBA fans! How is it going? The NBA Second Round is well underway and we have seen a great number of battles already. The battle lines are drawn and as the race for the title heats up, we are going to see only the intensity rising up. And in this game, for the second bout between the two, the Boston Celtics will host the Milwaukee Bucks.

The Celtics beat the Bucks 101:89 in the last game as Giannis Antetokounmpo notched a triple-double. The last loss must hurt Celtics’ confidence as they were completely overwhelmed on the defensive end. The Celtics will once again have to contend against the all-around threat of Giannis Antetokounmpo. How will they respond here?

Host: Boston Celtics
Visitors: Milwaukee Bucks
Match Timing: 4 May, @ 04:30 AM (+05:30 UTC)
Venue: TD Center

NBA Projections, Stats & Analysis

The Celtics shot just 33% from the field in the last game and the reigning champions showed why they won the title last game. Smart, Brown, Tatum, and Horford are all shot below 40%. The Celtics attempted 50 of their 84 shots from the three-point line and although they shot 36% from there, there were way too many attempts from beyond the arc.

The other area where the Celtics fluffed their chances was the turnovers and they committed 18 of them compared to 13 of them. The Bucks extracted a 54:48 rebounding edge. Thanks to committing fewer turnovers, the Bucks were able to get six more attempts from the field. The Bucks have really elevated their defense in the Playoffs.

The Celtics did have this tendency to force things during the Regular Season and it haunts them big-time in Game 1. The Celtics will need to be more aggressive in Game 2 and not relegate themselves to three-point shooting. The Celtics would be ruing the fact that they shut down Giannis in Game 1 and were still unable to come on top.

Fantasy-related tips

Antetokounmpo continues to be the major fantasy option and remains a firm favorite as the ace. Holiday is the second favorite option in terms of fantasy value while Booby Portis is a strong option. Grayson Allen and Pat Connaughton remain great filler options.

The Celtics’ Tatum remains the hot-favorite as the fantasy option and he showed in Game 1 too. Jaylen Brown can be a strong option too while Marcus Smart can be a viable option too. Robert Williams’ rebounding and shot-blocking have been huge too.
