In a surprising outcome, the Bucks weren’t able to get the job done at home against the Indiana Pacers, falling 139-123.
Milwaukee’s offense wasted no time getting set up in this one. Right out of the gates, they were flirting with a double-digit lead, making life tough for Indiana on defense. Joe Ingles provided a massive spark off the bench, splashing home several threes. That and more helped the Bucks channel a 40-30 advantage after the first quarter.
Early in the second, Giannis would pick up three fouls in the span of a minute. This was one of the reasons as to why the Pacers were able to erase that Milwaukee lead and tie things back up at about the halfway mark.
