The Milwaukee Bucks will host the Sacramento Kings at Fiserv Forum on Saturday, November 1, 2025. Currently tallying 4-1 in the 2025-26 NBA season, the Bucks will head into the game on the back of a significant 120-110 win over the Golden State Warriors. The game saw Ryan Rollins put up a 32-point show combined with a collective offensive effort from the rest of the starters and bench against a star-packed Warriors squad.

The Sacramento Kings, on the other hand, are hanging at the bottom half of the standings with only one win so far. Currently on a three-game losing skid, the Kings would aim to avoid a 4-0 hole and add another victory to their 1-4 tally. In their most recent game, they slumped to the Chicago Bulls 126-113, despite Zach LaVine’s 30-point effort.

While one team aims to continue its dominance, the other desperately wants to get out of the slump and register its second win of the season. Here, we will go through the injury reports and predicted starting lineups for both teams.
