The Chicago Bulls have lost three in a row for the first time ever under head coach Tom Thibodeau and they have a weekend road trip to try and right things in the Central Division.

The Bulls head to Milwaukee for a Saturday night game against the Bucks that can get Chicago back to .500 on the season.

The Bucks (6-4) have taken an early lead in the Central Division and lead the Pacers (6-7) by a game and a half as well as the Bulls (5-6). Milwaukee has also lost two in a row heading into Saturday night's game. The Bucks will challenge the Bulls as they are second in the league in assists at 24.2 per game.

Chicago doesn't play again until Monday evening when the Bucks play a return game in Chicago. A pair of wins would put Chicago back over .500 and into first place in the Central.
