Oct. 14 exhibition came with regulars rested

Milwaukee lost 125–104 to Chicago on Oct. 14, but eight regulars sat; the team was still trying to figure out rotations on Oct. 13, limiting the exhibition’s predictive value.

Pick Ideas

Wizards moneyline, with a price limit

Washington moneyline at home is a lean around -198; consider it only if that price is acceptable.

Lean under the full-game total

Under 238.5 is a cautious lean because the scoring number is demanding; keep the stake modest.
