Milwaukee is favored, but are not a high-scoring team and one that is saddled with a ton of injuries. Leading scorer Brandon Knight could be out again. Already playing without Jabari Parker, Larry Sanders, Ersan Ilyasova, Zaza Pachulia and Kendall Marshall, Milwaukee didn't have Knight available Monday for the first time this season because of a sore right quadriceps muscle. The point guard is averaging 17.7 points and 5.3 assists. While Parker is out for the season and Sanders is on a 10-game drug suspension, Knight is reportedly questionable for this game along with Ilyasova (groin) and Pachulia (calf). Knight's potential absence could be costly against the Lakers as he totaled 67 points in two meetings against them last year. LA is in town and rested, not having played since Sunday, and the underdog is 15-5-1 ATS in the last 21 meetings. Take the points on the LA Lakers.
