Boston Celtics vs Milwaukee Bucks 4/7/2022 Betting Odds
Boston Celtics Betting
The Boston Celtics now have a 50-30 record of the regular season to make them sit at the second-best record in the NBA Eastern Conference. This team needs to win this game to make them secure their current spot in the playoffs as they only own a half-a-game lead over the Philadelphia 76ers and Milwaukee Bucks. This team is now on a three-game winning streak and managed to pick up victories against the Indiana Pacers, Washington Wizards and Chicago Bulls in that run. Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown’s tandem is in full bloom along with the rest of the starters.

Milwaukee Bucks Betting
The Milwaukee Bucks just need one more win to enter the 50-win club this season and they still have three more games left to play. After losing back-to-back against the Los Angeles Clippers and Dallas Mavericks, the Bucks were able to secure a win in their most recent game against the Chicago Bulls, 127-106. This game is crucial for them to overtake the Boston Celtics in the NBA standings and keep their hopes alive of tying the Miami Heat. Giannis Antetokounmpo is glad that this game will be held in their home court and the former MVP needs to have a strong performance to secure the victory.
