Milwaukee Bucks Game Preview: January 26 vs Brooklyn Nets

Finale

All the sounds coming out of Bucks’ practice since Monday’s win have been remarkably positive, and the combination of rest and practice time would have been beneficial under normal circumstances, but should be even better again considering the change they’ve had to deal with.

The expected return of Antetokounmpo should only further bolster Milwaukee’s chances, but at the same time they will have to remain careful and diligent for the entirety of the game.

For as much as Brooklyn have their share of weaknesses, their strengths — rebounding and high-volume three-point shooting — perfectly fit a gameplan that could cause Milwaukee all sorts of problems.
