Khris Middleton nearly matched his career high from Tuesday night and helped the Bucks hold on to a victory over the Pacers Thursday night.
The Bucks made huge runs in the first and third quarters. They handled the Pacers' attempts to come back in the first seven minutes of the fourth quarter and an easy victory seemed like a certainty with a Pacers team that would surely be tired out from their overtime loss to the Bulls on Wednesday night.
That was not the case. The Pacers pulled out a full court press and the Bucks could not stop turning the ball over.
