Giannis Antetokounmpo returned from injury not only to lead the Bucks on the court with 29 points but also to make a statement off the court with his subsequent comments.
The Greek Freak did so against the Bulls when, instead of running down the clock with the game already won, he decided to dunk unchallenged, a move that sparked a scuffle with the Chicago players. Antetokounmpo said his team needs to play with intensity, that they are not in a position to give anything away, or else they will "lose half the team" through trades if they don't improve their standings soon.
The Bucks have a 13-19 record and won as underdogs on Friday. Alongside the two-time MVP, Rollins scored 20 points and Portis added 17, giving the Bucks favorable momentum heading into Monday's game against the Hornets.
However, Charlotte won their last two games, 120-105, against the Orlando Magic, extending their winning streak to two. The Hornets won as 5.5-point underdogs at the KIA Center, with Miles Bridges recording a double-double of 16 points and 11 rebounds.

Our Charlotte Hornets vs Milwaukee Bucks Prediction
This will be the third Hornets-Bucks meeting of the season; the first, played at the Spectrum Center, was won by the Hornets 111-100 against a Bucks team missing Giannis Antetokounmpo.
Antetokounmpo scored 25 points in the rematch in Milwaukee, which went to overtime with a final score of 147-134 for the Bucks. The Hornets are the ones who come into the game weakened by the loss of Knuckleball, who is out with an ankle injury that will keep him out on Monday.
Our prediction for Hornets vs Bucks is: Bucks -4.
