Milwaukee has won four of its last five games, recovering from a loss to Los Angeles on Friday to beat the Hornets by nine points on Saturday. The Bucks won without Giannis Antetokounmpo, Khris Middleton, and Jrue Holiday, with Bobby Portis scoring 20 points, Jordan Nwora 17, Brook Lopez, and Jevon Carter 14 each. It was a genuine team effort, as Milwaukee had assists for its 39 buckets in 24 games.
The Magic have not had an exciting year, losing eight in a row and nine of their past ten. The Raptors beat Orlando on Saturday, shooting a season-best 56.0 percent from the field (47 of 84). Still, the Magic don’t have a complete set of options, as they’re without Wendell Carter Jr. (right foot) and point guard Jalen Suggs (ankle). Carter Jr. is averaging 16.6 points and 9.1 rebounds per game, while Suggs is averaging 12.4 points and 5.4 assists this season. Bol Bol scored 18 points and was the only starter for the Magic in double figures, while rookie forward Paolo Banchero went 2-of-8 from the field (nine points).
The Magic could go to the court without a 44 percent scoring option against Milwaukee, and Milwaukee could also be behind with some players in Antetokounmpo, Middleton, and Holiday. Whether or not any of the Bucks’ stars fit in will make no difference, though, because Milwaukee has a group of veterans who can carry the load, as they did against Charlotte. Milwaukee’s defense is elite, with opponents having the league’s lowest effective field goal percentage. Meanwhile, the Magic have the fifth-worst offensive rating in the NBA.
