A little bit of home cooking proved to be the elixir the Milwaukee Bucks were searching for to get back in the win column as they took care of the Indiana Pacers Thursday night with a 117-98 win at Fiserv Forum.
The Bucks got off on the right foot following the opening tip to take early control of the contest. While the Pacers managed to catch up to them in due time, a late scoring surge helped to swing momentum back over to the Bucks’ corner as they held a 32-24 edge at the end of one.
Milwaukee continued to expand control of the night by building up their lead into double digits around the nine-minute mark of the second quarter.
