The Milwaukee Bucks will reportedly be without forward Nikola Mirotic for at least two-to-four weeks due to a slight fracture of his left thumb.
Mirotic hit 8-of-14 shots and a trio of 3-pointers for 23 points, six rebounds and one assist in Tuesday’s 115-101 win over the Lakers.
He’s averaged 15.2 points, 7.4 rebounds and 1.2 assists per game this year, though his production has dropped a bit since being traded from New Orleans to Milwaukee. In the 14 games since that move, he’s averaged 11.6 points, 5.4 rebounds, and 1.4 assists.
