The model has considered that Milwaukee forward Giannis Antetokounmpo is a one-man wrecking crew. Antetokounmpo is unstoppable in the paint and absorbs contact consistently. The seven-time All-Star also plays suffocating defense. He ranks fourth in the NBA in points (30.6) but seventh in both rebounds (10.7) and field-goal percentage (61.7). In his last game, Antetokounmpo had 32 points and 12 rebounds.

The model also knows Indiana guard Tyrese Haliburton generates offense at a high level. Haliburton owns an effortless jumper and has superb court vision. The Iowa State product is 13th in the league in scoring (26.3) with a league-leading 12.3 assists per game. On Dec. 7 versus the Bucks, Haliburton finished with 27 points and 15 assists.
