What to Know
The Indiana Pacers have been on the wrong side of a one-way rivalry with the Milwaukee Bucks and are hoping to record their first win since Feb. 12 of 2020. Indiana and Milwaukee will face off in a Central Division battle at 2:30 p.m. ET Monday at Fiserv Forum. The Pacers are hoping to patch up the holes in a defense that has allowed an average of 115.93 points per matchup.
The game between Indiana and the Memphis Grizzlies this past Saturday was not a total blowout, but with Indiana falling 130-112 at home, it was darn close to turning into one. Indiana’s loss came about despite a quality game from small forward Chris Duarte, who had 25 points.
Meanwhile, Milwaukee lost to the Miami Heat on the road by a decisive 111-95 margin. Power forward Bobby Portis (15 points), small forward Pat Connaughton (14 points), and center Brook Lopez (13 points) were the top scorers for the Bucks.
With both teams hitting sour notes in their previous games, they will no doubt be looking to produce a better outcome in this one. Check back to see which squad is able to work their way into the win column.
