Coming off a convincing 111-83 win against the Memphis Grizzlies, the Indiana Pacers travel to Milwaukee to face the Bucks in a potential early season playoff preview.
The Bucks have been a trendy favorite to jump the Pacers in the Eastern Conference standings this season. They squeaked out a victory against the Charlotte Hornets on Wednesday, 113-112, to open their season. Giannis Antetokounmpo, affectionately known as the “Greek Freak”, already looked to be in mid-season form, flirting with a triple-double (28/18/8). Khris Middleton finished with 19 points and 9 rebounds to his credit.
