Both teams in tonight’s Bucks vs Lakers matchup have championship aspirations. But only one of them can win at crypto.com Arena on Friday and we expect that team to be the Los Angeles Lakers. The Lakers have won two-thirds of their games at home this season and they should be able to bounce back from a home loss to the Sacramento Kings in their last outing.
