Sunday, December 9 finds the Milwaukee Bucks traveling to play the Toronto Raptors for their second meeting of 2018-19. Both squads last played Friday with the Bucks losing to the Warriors and the Raptors losing in overtime to Brooklyn.
Last season, the Raptors took the season series winning two of three games and this year Milwaukee won the opening meeting. The Bucks hold the all-time record having bested the Raptors in 49 of their 86 matches.
Milwaukee Bucks
A trade occurred Friday as the Bucks sent John Henson and Matthew Dellavedova to Cleveland and Washington also in the mix. Milwaukee adds George Hill from Cleveland and Jason Smith from the Wizards plus a 2021 second-round pick.
Milwaukee then hosted the Golden State Warriors who no doubt were seeking revenge given the earlier loss to the Bucks this season. That was the game Stephen Curry got injured which kept him out 11 games.

Losing to an elite Warriors squad isn’t anything to be alarmed about, however this was the fourth loss in seven games for Milwaukee. The other teams who bested the Bucks are potential concerns as two are lower tier teams (Suns and Knicks) as well as the Hornets.

For that reason it feels like this match versus top seeded Toronto takes on more emphasis. Additionally, the Bucks are 4-5 on the road which is an area they surely want to improve.
Neither Smith or Hill are expected to be available to play Sunday. Trevon Duval (eye) remains out for the Bucks.
Toronto Raptors
In truth, the Raptors were lucky to be as close as they were to winning in Brooklyn. Most of the Raptors were cold from the field with their defense keeping the game close.
Three Raptors produced offensively with Kawhi Leonard being the only Raptors player hitting with efficiency from deep (5 of 6). Leonard (32), Jonas Valanciunas (24) and Pascal Siakam (16) were the only players to register double-digit scoring.

Concerning for the Raptors is Kyle Lowry is clearly playing through injury and it’s affecting his shot which was punctuated by his 1 of 8 cold front in Brooklyn.
The Raptors have registered key victories over the Warriors and Sixers recently and lost two heartbreakers to the Nuggets at the buzzer and Nets in overtime. Toronto is on a difficult schedule stretch which will find them heading out west to face the Clippers, Warriors, Blazers and Nuggets following this match.
Norman Powell (shoulder) remains out.
