Game Preview
The Bulls are in a tough spot, cruising throughout the Western Conference and meeting tough rivals. They have two wins and two defeats so far, losing to the Rockets and Suns while beating the Jazz and the Kings in the most recent encounter, 128-116.
Hats off to Cobe White for his 35 points in this event, but we need to mention the veteran Kevin Huerter, who had 25 buckets, and Nikola Vucevic’s double-double with 24 points and 14 boards, plus his 8 assists.
Following three home wins, the shorthanded Lakers lost to the Milwaukee Bucks, 118-89. They were constantly on the back foot, being hammered against by Giannis and the boys.
However, Nobody hoped for anything better because pretty much the whole starting lineup didn’t play – Luka, James, Reaves, and Hachimura. Doncic should be in the lineup tonight, Reaves and Hachimura are questionable. Though, Bronny James will be available for sure.
