I didn't get to this in time for a reasonable spread on Milwaukee, but I don't see how the Lakers score much tonight without LeBron James (post-history rest) and all the guys they traded away in the past two days led by Russell Westbrook -- none of the new guys will play tonight. I could see the Bucks sitting Giannis, or limiting his minutes quite a bit, now that LA is basically playing with a JV roster.
The trade deadline has passed and the Lakers were busy. Out are Russell Westbrook, Patrick Beverley and Thomas Bryant. In are D’Angelo Russell, Malik Beasley, Jared Vanderbilt and Mo Bamba. The problem is, none of those four will be available for this game. LeBron James (ankle) is also questionable. Better days are ahead for the Lakers, but a Bucks team that has won eight straight should blow them out here.
