There is a solid slate of NBA games set for Friday, Jan. 2 as teams look to really get some positive outcomes on the board with he All-Star Break fast approaching.

The Bucks are coming off a disappointing loss in Golden State on Jan. 7, which once again prevented the team from starting a winning streak. Milwaukee (16-21) now looks to get back into the win column against a Los Angeles team that is currently No. 5 in the Western Conference with a 23-12 record.
