Players to watch out for in Milwaukee Bucks vs Chicago Bulls

With Zach Lavine set to miss this game due to health and safety protocols, all the pressure will be on DeRozan to lead his team, and we can see him having a good outing irrespective of the result.

  • Giannis Antetokounmpo – Bucks

Giannis will be locked in to make sure the series go no further, as he would love to win the series at his home court against an injury deplete Bulls team.
