The Bucks and Thunder are set to lock horns in a preseason clash at Fiserv Forum on Tuesday night.
Oklahoma City are entering the new campaign with championship swagger after last year's fairytale run. Despite being the league's youngest squad, they stormed through the regular season and capped it off with a Finals triumph. Now, the reigning champs have their sights set on a repeat, something no team has pulled off since the Warriors back in 2017 and 2018.
That said, the Thunder dropped their fourth game in six preseason outings, falling 116-101 to the Indiana Pacers on Saturday night at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis. With the loss, the Thunder now sit at 2-2 in exhibition play.
Milwaukee, meanwhile, never looked back after jumping out to a 12-point lead early with their starters, cruising to a 127-121 victory over the Chicago Bulls on October 12 at the United Center.
Giannis Antetokounmpo made a statement in his season debut, posting 13 points and 10 rebounds in just 22 minutes, while new addition Myles Turner impressed from deep, knocking down 5-of-8 three-pointers on his way to 19 points.
