Los Angeles Lakers vs Milwaukee Bucks Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 11/15/25

The Lakers improved to 2-2 SU on their road trip following last night’s win in New Orleans. The result was never in doubt as LA led by as many as 22 points, abusing the Pelicans down low en route to scoring 60 points in the paint. If the Lakers are smart they’ll look to use the same strategy tonight in Milwaukee as they finish their East coast trip. The Bucks rank only 17th in opponent points in the paint, if there is one weakness of this team it’s that. Luka Doncic in particular has excelled against this team, he’s scored at least 33 points in 4 straight meetings, while in the last two he torched the Bucks for 45 and 40 points.

Milwaukee also has a superstar of their own, putting up gigantic numbers. Giannis just dished out 18 assists in last night’s win over Charlotte, but the Bucks needed OT to beat a vastly inferior Hornets team. Consistency has been an issue for this team, after putting together two runs of back-to-back wins in the first 10 days of the season, Milwaukee has failed to win two straight games since the turn of the month. Covering the spread has also been an issue – the Bucks have done so only twice in 8 games, they’ve also been an unreliable 1-4 ATS in 5 home games vs the Lakers.

Both teams are playing their 2nd game in two days, but I’m giving a slight edge to the Lakers only because Milwaukee required OT to win their game. Luka has been unstoppable in this match-up, I can see him having a big game here and the Lakers wrapping up their road trip on a high note. Back LA on the Money Line.
