The defending champions Milwaukee Bucks host the Detroit Pistons at the Fiserv Forum arena in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, as the Bucks look to continue their winning streak.
The Detroit Pistons are coming into this game with a record that reads 6-28 as they sit at the foot of the Eastern Conference standings. They have had an atrocious campaign thus far and there has been no indication of that changing. They have lost eight of their last 10 games and have picked up only two wins from 17 games on the road. But confidence should be high after edging out the San Antonio Spurs in an overtime thriller.
Meanwhile, the Milwaukee Bucks seem to have found their swagger back as the defending champions are on a six-game winning streak and have a record of 25-13 as they find themselves only one game behind leader Chicago Bulls. They have won seven of their last 10 games and are 13-5 at home. Two-time MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo continues to be the driving force behind their success.
