The Los Angeles Lakers' three-game winning streak ended on Wednesday when they suffered a 107-91 defeat to the San Antonio Spurs. In that game, they shot just 39.5% from the field, and with Austin Reaves, Rui Hachimura and LeBron James out of action, they just didn't have nearly enough firepower to give themselves a real shot at victory.
James was ruled out prior to the opening tip of that game due to left foot arthritis and sciatica after he had dropped 30 points, eight rebounds and eight assists the previous night. He is listed as questionable for L.A.'s home contest on Friday versus the Milwaukee Bucks.

At the same time, starting forward Rui Hachimura, who missed the team's last five games with a calf ailment, is also listed as questionable, which means he could make his return against Giannis Antetokounmpo and crew.
While the Bucks are 16-21, they still have to be considered dangerous, especially by a Lakers team that will be short-handed to one extent or another and still has plenty of issues, especially on the defensive end, to resolve.
Los Angeles will be off after Friday's game for two days before it heads north to play the Sacramento Kings on Monday.
