3. Golden State Warriors vs. Milwaukee Bucks (2:30 p.m. ET)
The Golden State Warriors and the Milwaukee Bucks will also both be entering this game 0-1 after dropping opening night games. Giannis Antetokounmpo looked excellent in his season debut and even flashed a bit more offensive skill-set than he did last season.
Still, it wasn’t enough to overcome the Boston Celtics in their opening night game. That’s perfectly fine, considering that many expect the Celtics to be a contender in the Eastern Conference this season.
As for the Warriors, they looked a little bit more underwhelming against Brooklyn Nets on their opening night. They were blown out and the final score wasn’t really indicative of the game at all. The big hope, however, is that Draymond Green will be able to make a season debut for the Warriors on Christmas day.
Will James Wiseman look a little bit more comfortable in his second game in the NBA? If the Warriors are going to beat the Bucks, they’re going to meet both Wiseman and Green to have big games on Christmas Day.
