New York Knicks forward Julius Randle has been known to be a threat from beyond the arc. In tonight's game against the Milwaukee Bucks, can he hit over 1.5 three-pointers?

Statistically, the Milwaukee Bucks have struggled with defending the perimeter. They have allowed an average of 13.2 three-pointers per game, which ranks them 12th in the league. Against power forwards like Randle, they have given up an average of 3.1 three-pointers per game, the third most in the league.

Randle's shooting percentage from beyond the arc this season is 27.9%, and 33.3% for his career. In a previous game against the Bucks, Randle attempted nine three-pointers but only made one. However, his shot chart showed that he had the volume, and on another night, he would have made more.

Considering the Bucks' defensive struggles and Randle's ability to take and make three-pointers, it is worth betting on him hitting over 1.5 three-pointers. Randle has made multiple threes in 10 out of his 19 appearances this season, which gives confidence that he can achieve this mark.

The in-season tournament adds the element of urgency, making it likely that Randle will play significant minutes. With the opportunity to exploit the Bucks' weakness on the perimeter, Randle has a good chance to hit over 1.5 three-pointers in tonight's game.
