Lakers at Bucks: times, TV, how to watch online
Both the Lakers and Bucks come into tonight's clash looking to bounce back after defeats to Chicago Bulls and Atlanta Hawks respectively.
It's been a disappointing start to the 2021/22 start for the LA Lakers (8-7) and once again the LA franchise struggled on Monday as an inspired DeMar DeRozan performance who was at his brilliant best again saw Chicago Bulls overcome the Angeles Lakers 121-103 at a packed Staples Center.
LA were, once again without superstar LeBron James and it was left to Talen Horton-Tucker (28 points), Russell Westbrook (25 points) and Anthony Davis (20 points) to npush the stuttering Lakers along (8-7).
Bucks fall to Hawks with Giannis speculation increasing
Giannis Antetokounmpo returned for the Bucks (6-8), registering 26 points, six assists and five rebounds on Monday but his presence was insufficient as Trae Young's season-best 42 points fuelled the Atlanta Hawks to a 120-100 win over reigning champions.
Antetokounmpo hinted that his next challenge may not be with NBA champions the Milwaukee Bucks. The two-time NBA MVP had reiterated his commitment to the Bucks in December when he signed a super-max five-year, $228million contract extension, the largest in league history. However, the 26-year-old suggested his future may be away from Milwaukee.
"One challenge was to bring a championship here and we did," Antetokounmpo told GQ. "It was very hard, but we did. Very, very hard. I just love challenges. What's the next challenge? The next challenge might not be here".
