Milwaukee vs. Indiana: Jrue Holiday Wins Indy 500 (-449)

Welcoming back Jrue Holiday and Giannis Antetokounmpo to the lineup, the All-Star duo combined for a whopping 89 points as the Bucks rolled the Pacers 149-136 in a wild one. Holiday’s career-best 51 led all scorers and Giannis amassed a triple-double with his 38 points, while Bennedict Mathurin poured in 29 for the losing side.

In the opening minutes, Giannis repeatedly looked to establish himself down low with a flurry of drives, resulting both in buckets and trips to the line. He scored 13 before his first breather, well-needed with how physically Indy played him. Otherwise, this one went back and forth, as Indiana flashed their trademark brand of pace that gives Milwaukee trouble.
