The Bucks and Pacers couldn’t have had a more different end to the regular season. Milwaukee has lost eight of its last 11 games en route to third place, while Indiana has won six of its last eight, keeping them out of the Play-In tournament.
A big question for the Bucks lies in the health of Giannis Antetokounmpo: the star’s status is uncertain for the series due to a calf injury. Nonetheless, Milwaukee still has Brook Lopez, Khris Middleton and, of course, Damien Lillard in Antetokounmpo’s supporting cast.
The Pacers won four of the five regular-season matchups between the two teams, including a victory in the semifinals of the in-season tournament. That being said, all five meetings took place before Doc Rivers was named Milwaukee’s head coach and before Indiana acquired Pascal Siakam.
