Starters

C-. Eric Bledsoe probably shouldn’t have been playing on Saturday night. Having not played a game for three weeks, Jason Kidd had suggested he’d play 20 minutes on Friday against San Antonio, but instead the point guard played 29 on that occasion and another 33, less than 24 hours later in this one. Bledsoe may not be a deadeye shooter, but as he went 0-for-6 from deep while missing badly, it was clear he had no legs in his shot. <p>Five turnovers was another sign of his difficulties, but just by being on the floor there were plenty of instances when Bledsoe left the Lakers with near impossible decisions. Bledsoe still found a way to put up 11 important points, and had some strong defensive plays too.</p>. Guard. Milwaukee Bucks. ERIC BLEDSOE

D. This was a rare night of struggle for <a rel=. Guard/Forward. Milwaukee Bucks. TONY SNELL

Shooting 3-of-13 from the field was far from ideal for <a rel=. Guard/Forward. Milwaukee Bucks. KHRIS MIDDLETON. C

A. Giannis Antetokounmpo was likely feeling just as tired as all of his teammates on Saturday, but in his case an average game is quickly starting to resemble 33 points, 15 rebounds and three assists on 12-of-19 shooting. Giannis never really had to break out and assert himself on the Lakers, but was reliably excellent and even threw in a statement put-back dunk over Lonzo Ball for good measure.. Forward. Milwaukee Bucks. GIANNIS ANTETOKOUNMPO

Milwaukee Bucks. JOHN HENSON. B. <a rel=. Center
