The matchup against the Bucks is the second of a back-to-back set, with the Lakers coming off a 118-104 win over the New Orleans Pelicans on Friday night. Hachimura recorded 14 points and four rebounds in 35 minutes against the Pelicans.

The Lakers also listed guard Marcus Smart as questionable for the game against the Bucks because of a viral illness. Smart had 13 points, five assists, five rebounds and a pair of steals in 34 minutes against the Pelicans.
