Preview courtesy of The Sports Network:
The Milwaukee Bucks attempt to put the brakes on a two-game losing streak, as they visit the Chicago Bulls tonight at the United Center.
Milwaukee lost on Tuesday when Chris Webber drained a three-pointer from the top of the key as time expired in regulation, lifting the Sacramento Kings to a dramatic 89-86 victory over the Bucks at the Bradley Center.
Desmond Mason paced the Bucks with 23 points in the loss to Sacramento.
All-Star Michael Redd added 20 points and Mike James contributed 15 for Milwaukee, which has dropped three of four and 12 of its last 15 games overall.
The Bucks' Marcus Fizer did not play on Tuesday because of strep throat and Keith Van Horn missed the contest with right ankle tendinitis, his sixth straight game. Both players are questionable for tonight's contest.
Mason has scored in double-digits in eight straight games. He is averaging 20.3 points and 5.6 rebounds in that span.
Milwaukee is a brutal 1-8 on the road this season.
The Bulls start a three-game homestand tonight. Chicago will also host the Indiana Pacers and Portland Trail Blazers on the stand.
On Wednesday, Eddy Curry poured in a team-high 20 points, Kirk Hinrich added 15 and Chicago earned a rare road win by beating the Memphis Grizzlies, 96-88, at the FedExForum.
Ben Gordon came off the bench to add 15 points on 5-of-9 shooting on Wednesday for the Bulls, who won just their second road game of the season. Tyson Chandler had a solid all around game, netting nine points with a game-high 10 rebounds in the win.
Curry has scored 20 points in back-to-back contests. He is averaging 17.2 points and 6.6 rebounds in his last five games.
Chicago is 3-7 as the host this season.
In 2003-04, the Bucks won three of their four contests with the Bulls.
Overall, the home team has won 13 of the last 14 meetings. Milwaukee has won four of six and six of the last nine contests in this series. The Bucks have lost five of their last eight at Chicago.
Good luck
