Jefferson scored 13 points on 3-of-15 shooting in his first meeting against them back on Jan. 9 in a 104-102 win.

RJ has additional motivation as the Bucks look to win three straight for the second time this season. The Bucks are coming off a 110-107 win over Atlanta on Saturday.

The 4-point favored Nets have dropped nine of 12, with eight of those games coming on the road, including losses in Boston, New Orleans and San Antonio.

New Jersey has won five straight at home against the Bucks, while Milwaukee is 1-10 ATS in the last 11 meetings.

This game has obvious implications in the standings, since both teams are part of a crowded race for one of the last playoff spots in the East.
