Bucks Dominate Short-Handed Lakers to Secure 118-89 Victory

Giannis Antetokounmpo led the charge as Milwaukee capitalized on the Lakers' injury woes to sweep the season series for the first time since 2021-22.

Giannis Antetokounmpo scored 28 points and grabbed seven rebounds, with key contributions from Gary Trent Jr. (23 points) and Kyle Kuzma (20 points, 5 assists).
The Lakers were without LeBron James, Luka Doncic, Austin Reaves, and other key players, severely limiting their offensive capabilities.
Bronny James achieved a career-high 17 points for the Lakers, tying for the team lead in scoring alongside rookie Dalton Knecht.
The Bucks, missing Damian Lillard due to a calf injury, built an early lead and maintained control throughout the game, snapping the Lakers' nine-game home winning streak.
This victory was critical for the Bucks as they aim to improve their playoff positioning in the Eastern Conference, with their next game against the Sacramento Kings.
