This is the first season after the trade of Giannis Antetokounmpo, with the roster being rebuilt around rookies Brayden Burries and Nate Ament, and the early bill has arrived: a 1-10 start that matches the 1974-75 and 1993-94 teams, in a franchise whose worst full season remains the 15-win campaign of 2013-14. The immediate schedule offers no soft landing: the high-scoring Lakers come to Milwaukee on November 11, then Orlando away on November 13 and Atlanta at home on November 15, with 11 games still left in November.
