One of the biggest mistakes of the night for the Lakers was allowing Bucks Giannis Antetokounmpo to have his way with them as he scored 34 points going 5-8 from behind the arc with 11 rebounds.
It didn’t help that the Lakers star duo consisting of LeBron James and Anthony Davis seemed out of sync having combined to make 19-of-44.
Lebron ended the night with 21 points, 12 rebounds and 11 assists while Anthony Davis managed to make out with 36 points and 10 rebounds.

All this was not enough to push the Lakers through with a win as their reserves were only able to make a combined total of 4 points.
The Lakers came back in the send half having won come out on top in the third quarter with 35 points against Milawwaukee’s 24 and the final quarter with 23 against the Bucks 22.
However this late was not enough to secure them a win.
The Lakers still top the Western Conference but this recent string of loses has exposed the reoccurring shortcomings and will need to be dealt with should they have any hope of walking away with the NBA title at the end of the season.
