Game Preview
The Milwaukee Bucks (30-13) and Cleveland Cavaliers (26-15) square off at the Fiserv Forum on January 24.
With an 8-game winning run under their belt, Cleveland is among the hottest squads in the NBA. Sam Merrill, who scored 26 points in the Cavaliers’ victory over Orlando in their latest outing, topped the team with 8 three-pointers made off the bench. Cleveland’s star player, Donovan Mitchell, is a possible All-Star this season with averages of 27.8 points per game, 6.1 assists, and 5.4 rebounds. Mitchell makes 3.1 three-pointers per game on 34.9% shooting from outside the arc, which leads the club in both steals and made threes. In 4 of his previous 5 matches, Mitchell has scored 25 points or more; in the victory over Brooklyn, he scored 45 points. Their next highest scorers, Evan Mobley and Darius Garland, are both sidelined due to an injury.
After just 43 games, Adrian Griffin has been fired as the Milwaukee Bucks’ head coach. The Bucks had a 30–13 record, but rumors circulated that he was losing the star players’ backing and the locker room. Doc Rivers is reportedly a possible contender for the job, but nothing is official as of yet. The Bucks enter this game having defeated the Pistons in their last two encounters. Giannis Antetokounmpo guided Milwaukee to victory in their most recent match with 31 points, 17 rebounds, and 10 assists. With 31.2 points per game, which is third in the NBA, Giannis leads the Milwaukee squad in scoring and is still the franchise’s top dog. After a successful transition to his new squad, Damian Lillard continues to pace the team with 6.9 assists per game and averaging 25.3 points per game. With 3.0 made threes each contest on 35.1% shooting from outside the arc, Lillard leads the team in shooting efficiency.
