Mike Budenholzer returns to Milwaukee for the first time since leaving the Bucks in 2023, as the Phoenix Suns face the Milwaukee Bucks. These two teams played last week, with the Suns winning 108-106 thanks to a game-winning shot from Devin Booker.

Devin Booker last missed the playoffs in the 2019-20 season with Phoenix. He spoke candidly about where the team is now.

NBA oddsmakers opened Milwaukee as a 6.5-point home favorite, and that jumped to as high as -7 before buyback on the Suns slid this spread to Bucks -5.5. According to Covers Consensus, 67% of picks are laying the points with Milwaukee while 67% of total picks are siding with the Over.

The Phoenix Suns were once positioned to be successful for many years, and now with the season coming to a close they will have to face a harsh reality this offseason.

Phoenix Suns superstar forward Kevin Durant recently opined that the NBA is in the best place it has ever been.

Kevin Durant was listed as out in the latest injury report for the game against the Milwaukee Bucks on Tuesday due to a left ankle sprain.

Phoenix will try to end its four-game road skid when the Suns play Milwaukee. Tuesday's matchup is the first this season between the two squads.
