CHICAGO -- Brandon Knight had always been a thorn on Los Angeles' side, scoring 37 points when the Milwaukee Bucks beat the Lakers last December at the Staples Center.
In the two teams' rematch Thursday night at the BMO Harris Bradley Center, Knight was again too much to handle, this time sinking 12 of 21 field goals for 31 points as the Bucks defeated the Lakers, 108-105, to sweep their season series.
Ramon Sessions finished with 22 and five dimes while Khris Middleton pitched in 14 for Milwaukee. The Bucks broke a 9-game losing streak to improve to 14-58, the worst in the NBA overall.
Jordan Hill had a career-high 28 points and 16 rebounds but it all went for naught as the Lakers dropped to 24-47. Nick Young also had 17 for the Lakers while 7-foot center Chris Kaman had 13. (Homer D. Sayson)
