The Bucks picked up a 139-118 victory over the New Orleans Pelicans in their last contest, capping off a four-game road trip. They have won three straight and six of their last seven. They now begin a four-game home stand as they sit 11th in the East with a 24-30 record.

This is the fourth and final meeting of the season between the two teams. The Raptors are 2-1 in the season series. They have not played each other since December 18.
