After a gutsy Game 5 victory that turned into a laugher, the Milwaukee Bucks have forced a Game 6 in their first-round series with the Indiana Pacers. They head back to Indianapolis, where they’ve yet to win this season, down 3-2 and needing to stave off elimination yet again. Once more, they’ll likely need to do it without Giannis Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard.
Where We’re At
A resurgent effort by multiple Buck role players paired with continued excellence by Khris Middleton (seriously, with all the doubts fans had about him the last two years? Time to eat crow) and effective defensive adjustments was the magic formula for a Game 5 blowout at home.
