The Milwaukee Bucks begin their best-of-seven first round playoff series against the Indiana Pacers on April 19 at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis.
The Bucks were without star Giannis Antetokounmpo when they suffered a first-round playoff exit at the hands of the Pacers last season.
Antetokounmpo will be in the starting lineup this time around but the Bucks will be without all-star guard Damion Lillard at least for Game 1 of the series. He appears to have made a remarkable recovery from a deep vein thrombosis (DVT), as a blood clot that formed in his right calf has dissipated and might play later in the series.
