Milwaukee Bucks (45-34) and New Orleans Pelicans (21-58) will lock horns at the Fiserv Forum on Thursday night. The Bucks will enter this game after securing their automatic postseason qualification spot in the Eastern Conference with three games remaining. They are fifth in the standings, 18 games behind the Cavaliers, and can lock down the No. 5 seed with a win against the Pelicans. The Bucks cannot let their foot off the gas now.

New Orleans Pelicans, on the other hand, have nothing left to play for after a poor run of form throughout the season. They are sure of finishing 14th in the Western Conference, with tricky assignments against the Heat and the Thunder coming up. The Pelicans have been uninspiring, especially on the road this season, losing 33 of their 40 assignments. Still, finishing the season strongly could give them a foundation to build on.
