The Milwaukee Bucks will face the Miami Heat on Tuesday in their third group stage of the 2024 NBA Cup. The Bucks enter the matchup on a four-game winning streak after defeating the Houston Rockets, Chicago Bulls, Indiana Pacers and Charlotte Hornets in the past week.

The Heat are also currently on an upward trend. They have won their last two games against the Dallas Mavericks and Philadelphia 76ers and three of their last four games overall.

The Bucks-Heat game will air from Miami on TNT at 6:30 p.m. CT. The game can also be streamed on the Fubo TV app, NBA League Pass, Sling TV and TNT.

The Bucks are (+2) underdogs to the Heat (-2). The over/under for the matchup is 222.5 points.

Both the Bucks and Heat are doing well right now as each of their superstars is playing their best basketball of the season. Heat forward Jimmy Butler returned from an ankle injury in the last two games. He scored 30 or more points in each of his two return games, including 33 points in the Heat’s overtime win over the Dallas Mavericks.

On the Bucks side, Giannis Antetokounmpo is playing his most dominant basketball of the season. Antetokounmpo has scored over 30 points in each of the Bucks’ last three games, including a 41-point game against the Bulls. Antetokounmpo was named the Eastern Conference Player of the Week on Monday for his play.

Although both Butler and Antetokounmpo are doing their best, the location of the game could be the key. The Bucks are just 1-6 on the road this season, giving the Heat a significant lead. The Bucks need to prove they can win consistently on the road.

Forecast: Heat 117, Bucks 110

The Bucks are currently 2-0 in the 2024 NBA Cup, with wins over the Toronto Raptors and Pacers. They still have two games left in the group stage and the chance of reaching the knockout rounds is at stake. If the Bucks can defeat the Heat, they should have a great opportunity to qualify for the next round of the tournament. The Heat are 1-1 so far in the 2024 NBA Cup.
