The Bucks are averaging just 92 points during regulation in their last three games. Some of their young stars are showing signs of hitting the wall nearing All-Star break.

The Nuggets are forced to be more defensive conscious likely minus three of their best offensive players. Leading scorer Danilo Gallinari is out with a groin injury. Denver loses much of its free throw percentage with Gallinari out. Gallinari shoots 88.7 percent from the foul line, out. Nikola Jokic has missed the last three games with a hip flexor strain and swingman, sparkplug Will Barton has missed the past two games with an ankle injury.

Point guard Emmanuel Mudiay is back for Denver, but he's one of the worst shooting guards in the NBA.

This high total doesn't accurately reflect Denver's missing firepower and Milwaukee's current scoring form.
