Rebounding is likely to be a big factor in this contest: The 76ers didn’t give up the ball easily last season, having only averaged 11.3 turnovers per game. However, it’s not like the Bucks struggle in that department as they averaged only 12.4.
Looking back to last season, the 76ers finished on the right side of .500 (47-35), and they’re hoping to kick off an even more successful campaign this year. Similarly, the Bucks also assembled a winning record last year, finishing the season 49-33.
The 76ers came up short against the Bucks when the teams last played back in March, falling 114-105. Will the 76ers have more luck at home instead of on the road?
