Last season, the Bucks went 10-4 in the second game of back-to-back sets, demonstrating their ability to handle the physical toll of consecutive nights of play. While the schedule includes several tough back-to-back matchups against contenders like the Boston Celtics, New York Knicks, and Miami Heat, the Bucks also have some more manageable back-to-backs with both games at home
Head coach Doc Rivers and his staff will need to carefully manage minutes and rotations to keep the Bucks’ veteran players fresh. Superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo’s health will be crucial, as he missed time late in the playoffs last season due to a calf injury.
