I’ll never not find satisfaction in the utter disappointment of the kids faces when they see me come out of the tunnel and not their favorite #Bucks player. – 7:11 PM

Less than a month after LeBron said the Lakers weren’t up to par with the defending champion Bucks, he flat out called the Play-In Clippers “a better team” than the Play-In (maybe) Lakers. On the bar-lowering of a fractured team. theathletic.com/3163173/2022/0… – 6:43 PM

Giannis tallied 25+ points, 15+ rebounds, and 5+ assists for the second consecutive game on Wednesday.

Zach LaVine didn’t pop up on injury report today and is good to go vs. Bucks, as expected. Billy Donovan said feedback about managing the knee has been all good since All-Star break – 6:02 PM
Julia Poe @byjuliapoe
Zach LaVine didn’t have any complaints about his knee after last night’s game, per Billy Donovan. He’s good to go tonight against the Bucks. – 6:00 PM
Rob Schaefer @rob_schaef
Bulls used Tyler Cook a lot defending Giannis in Jan. 21 matchup with Bucks, but he’s out tonight (G League assignment)
Billy Donovan mentioned Javonte Green, Derrick Jones Jr. (who both missed last game) + Tristan Thompson as primaries in cast Bulls will use against him tonight – 6:00 PM

International NBA players are dominating, including Giannis Antetokounmpo, Joel Embiid, Nikola Jokic and Luka Doncic.
What are these players doing that’s different from their American peers? How much easier is it for foreign players to get discovered now? basketballnews.com/stories/an-ins… – 5:28 PM

“I take it personal sometimes when I get scored on. I don’t like getting scored on. It’s something that, I don’t know where it comes from, I enjoy playing defense. Whenever I can I just try to put in as much effort into it as I can.”- Giannis Antetokounmpo jsonline.com/story/sports/n… – 2:43 PM
