CHICAGO – The Chicago Bulls, mired in a three-game losing skid, welcome the visiting Milwaukee Bucks on Dec 28 (Dec 29, Singapore time) for their second National Basketball Association (NBA) matchup in six days.
Milwaukee return to Chicago for the second time this week, having routed the Bulls 112-91 on Dec 23, despite missing All-Stars Giannis Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard. Brook Lopez and Khris Middleton picked up the slack, each posting 21 points, with NBA scoring leader Antetokounmpo sidelined with an illness.
The Bucks were again without Antetokounmpo and Lillard – the latter having missed the last four games with a calf injury, while also dealing with an illness – in their 111-105 loss to the Brooklyn Nets on Dec 26.
"Ain't no excuses," Bobby Portis said following the defeat. "We lost, they won, we move on Saturday. Get a win (against Chicago), feel good, go into Indiana (and) the new year. That's it."
