Two of the top scoring teams in the league will meet on Friday night as the Golden State Warriors visit the Milwaukee Bucks.

The Warriors are 3rd overall averaging 116.8 PPG and they finally have their leader Steph Curry back in the fold. In his first three games back since missing over three weeks, he’s scored 27-30-42 points. The Warriors lost the first game to Detroit and then beat the Hawks and Cavaliers.

The team has two more injuries to key starters with Draymond Green and Damian Jones out.

Golden State went 5-6 with Curry out of the lineup and are 17-9 overall.

Milwaukee is 16-7 on the season in spite going 3-3 in their last six games. They have the top offense in the league this season and are averaging an astounding 121.1 PPG.

Their superstar Giannis Antekounmpo is arguably the MVP thus far in the season, elevating his game under new coach Mike Budenholzer. He’s averaging 27.0 PPG and 13 RPG and is staring at both ends of the court. Add in Khris Middleton, Eric Bledsoe and Malcolm Brogdon and that is four players 28 years or younger averaging 15 PPG or more.

The Bucks routed the Pistons 115-92 last time out.

Having Kevin Durant play defense should help the Warriors, but it hurts not having Green to help go up against Antekounmpo. Still, expect the reigning champs to find another gear. The Pick: Warriors 131-125.
