The Milwaukee Bucks and Los Angeles Lakers will complete their two-game season series tonight, one week after the Bucks trounced the Lakers 126-106 in Milwaukee. The Bucks enter this matchup on a two-game losing streak, part of a seven-game stretch where they have lost five. The Lakers are on the second night of a back-to-back set after demolishing the Denver Nuggets Wednesday. Luka Doncic put up 21 points in the first quarter to lead the Lakers to a comfortable win while Nuggets stars Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray watched from the bench. Will Doncic and the Lakers be able to get some revenge for last week's rout? Or will the Bucks snap their losing streak by sweeping the season series?

Let's check out the SportsLine model's three highest-rated player prop recommendations for Bucks vs. Lakers and see what the payout would be if they were put into a same-game parlay. You can also check out same-game parlays for all five NBA games Thursday at SportsLine.
Luka Doncic Under 31.5 points (-104): 3.5 stars
Doncic was masterful in Wednesday's win, scoring from everywhere on the court early. He was also able to set up his teammates well with seven assists. Even though Doncic struggled with turnovers, he did get some rest late in this game and should be good to go for Thursday's contest. The star guard has gone Under his points line in each of the last three games, and SportsLine's model projects him at 29.4 points against Milwaukee.
Giannis Antetokounmpo Under 6.5 assists (+100): 3.5 stars
The Greek Freak has gone Over his assists line in each of the last five games, but this could be a spot where he falters. In his last 10 games against a team with a winning record and a top-10 defense, Antetokounmpo has gone Under his assist line six times. The Lakers might also look to get the ball out of Antetokounmpo's hands after he dished nine assists in last week's meeting.
Damian Lillard Over 4.5 rebounds (+134): 3.5 stars
Lillard logged 22 points, 10 assists and six rebounds in Milwaukee's 126-106 win over Los Angeles last Thursday. The guard has cooled off slightly on the glass in the last two games, but this is a good matchup for him to bounce back. In his last five games as a road favorite, Lillard has gone Over his rebounds line four times.
