Bucks vs. Bulls: How to watch NBA online, TV channel, live stream info, game time

Through 3 Quarters

Down one at the end of last quarter, the Chicago Bulls have now snagged the lead. It’s anybody’s game after three quarters, but Chicago is ahead of the Milwaukee Bucks 72-70.

Small forward DeMar DeRozan has led the way so far for the Bulls, as he has 27 points along with four boards. One thing to keep an eye out for is Tyler Cook’s foul situation as he currently sits at four.

Milwaukee has been relying on the performance of power forward Giannis Antetokounmpo, who has 22 points in addition to nine rebounds.

Milwaukee hasn’t lost 85% of the games in which they were down heading into the final period this year, so a win here would be refreshing.
