Injury Report: Lakers at Bucks
The Lakers are coming off a 118-104 road win against the New Orleans Pelicans. Tonight, the Lakers will go into tonight somewhat shorthanded against the Bucks on the second night of a back-to-back. Luckily, the Bucks are also coming off a game last night.
While the Lakers handled business in their game last night, the Bucks struggled with the Hornets. The Hornets eventually took the Bucks into overtime last night, so hopefully the Bucks are gassed heading into tonight.
Two starters from last night’s win at New Orleans are out tonight in Milwaukee for the Lakers, as Rui Hachimura (calf soreness) and Marcus Smart (illness) won’t play.
