The Lakers faced another defeat against the Bucks, struggling with key players like LeBron James and Rui Hachimura absent. Despite standout performances from Austin Reaves, who scored 28 points, and Luka Dončić with 45 points, the team could not secure a win, as only one other player contributed over 10 points. The game saw promising starts and efforts from the duo, but ultimately, offensive inconsistencies plagued the Lakers, culminating in a lackluster second half where the game turned into garbage time.
Much of the second half was reduced to garbage time. And a whole lot of you were in the comment section of our game thread to suffer through it together.
Luka returned to the game and caught fire, pulling the Lakers to as close as two points. Milwaukee responded and the Lakers went into the half trailing by eight with Luka scoring 29 of the team's 63 points.
After his red-hot first half, the break cooled Luka off. And with the rest of the Lakers still remaining cold, the game quickly trended in the wrong direction.
