Milwaukee Bucks vs Los Angeles Lakers Prediction & Betting Tips - NBA
by Devesh Jaganath | in NBA Predictions
The Los Angeles Lakers will travel to the Fiserv Forum to face the Milwaukee Bucks in the NBA on Thursday night. The Bucks (36-28) are fourth in the Eastern Conference, while the Lakers (40-23) are fourth in the West. Let’s get into the match prediction.
The Milwaukee Bucks will be hoping to get back in the win column in this match after suffering their third consecutive defeat on Tuesday night, 115-114 to the Pacers.
Brook Lopez led the team with 23 points, while Giannis Antetokounmpo contributed 19 points, 17 rebounds and seven assists but conceded a late foul that ultimately led to the defeat.
The Bucks are mid-table on both ends this season, 14th in points scored (114.3 PPG) and 12th in points against (112.0 PPG).
Meanwhile, the Los Angeles Lakers will also be aiming to bounce back to winning ways here after going down 111-108 on the road to the Nets on Monday night.
Despite a triple-double from Luka Doncic, Los Angeles went cold in the fourth quarter when they failed to score in three-and-a-half minutes, which allowed the Nets to edge the result late.
The Lakers are averaging 112.9 points per game this season (18th in the league), but they are a top-10 defence that allows just 111.1 PPG.
