Bulls vs. Bucks: How to watch, TV channel, start time (Jan. 1)

The short-handed Bulls take on the Bucks to start the New Year. Here’s when to tune in.

The Chicago Bulls and Milwaukee Bucks play on New Year’s Day, and if you’re wondering how you can watch the action live, you’ve come to the right place.

The Bulls (2-3) beat the Wizards on Thursday night, 133-130, despite missing four players – including starter Lauri Markkanen – due to the NBA’s health and safety protocol. Those four players (Markkanen, Tomas Satoransky, Ryan Arciadiacono and Chandler Hutchison) will not travel to Milwaukee for Friday’s game. The Bucks (2-3) are only two games removed from a dominant 47-point win over the Heat, but followed up that performance by losing to Miami on  Wednesday.

Here’s when you should tune in to see the game:

  • Date: Friday, January 1st
