The Indiana Pacers will attempt to seize a commanding 2-0 lead on the Milwaukee Bucks in Tuesday’s Game 2 of their Western Conference first-round series at Gainbridge Fieldhouse.
The Pacers will step into Game 2 on Tuesday with a 1-0 advantage in their series after a masterful effort on both ends of the floor in the series opener. Pascal Siakam led the way with 25 points while point guard Tyrese Halliburton recorded 10 points, 12 assists and 7 rebounds for the Pacers, who made 51 percent of their field goal attempts and hounded the Bucks to 41.7 percent field goal shooting. The Pacers also got steady contributions from their bench mob led by TJ McConnell and Benedict Mathurin, who combined for 24 points.
Giannis Antetokounmpo’s 36 points would not be enough to power the Bucks past the Pacers in Game 1. The two-time MVP was a man wrecking crew, shooting 14 for 23 from the field on top 12 rebounds in the blowout loss on Saturday. Damian Lillard did not play in Game 1 but is guaranteed to suit up in the series after he was cleared from taking blood clothing medication.

Our Indiana Pacers vs Milwaukee Bucks Prediction
Upset Alert: Bucks even the series with the Pacers behind a superhuman effort by Giannis Antetokounmpo.
The playoffs is the perfect time to start leveling up your parlay game because the stars will come out to play their best in this time of the year. In Game 2 between the Bucks vs. the Pacers, I would like to take my chance on Milwaukee taking the straight-up win (+160 moneyline) and the +4-point spread win (-108) because I feel we are about to witness a monster game from a super-motivated Greek Freak. Another reason I am feeling upbeat about Milwaukee’s winning chances on Tuesday is the report that Lillard could rejoin the team after spending several weeks on blood-thinning medication to treat his deep vein thrombosis. Lillard will bring additional firepower and playmaking to a team that scored 98 points on 41 FG% in Game 1. Then again, it will all come to Giannis and how he bounces back. I am betting another 35+ point game (+100 on DraftKings) from the two-time MVP, who effortlessly overpowered several mismatches given to him by the Pacers in the series opener. Our betting prediction for Indiana Pacers vs. Milwaukee Bucks: Bucks will win.
