Pacers vs Bucks – November 22: Why We Believe the Pacers (+182) Could Surprise
The NBA Cup continues with Pacers vs Bucks taking center stage in Milwaukee.
Pacers vs Bucks Preview
A Big Thanks to Anthony Davis
LA Lakers' center Anthony Davis missed two crucial free throws, paving the way for the Orlando Magic's thrilling 119-118 victory last night. This secured us an impressive +170 odds win. Tonight, our focus shifts to Milwaukee!
Game Preview: Bucks (6-9) vs Pacers (6-9)
PACERS VS BUCKS: These two teams clashed 11 times last season, delivering some dramatic encounters. Giannis Antetokounmpo alone racked up 54 and 64 points in two games. The Pacers also outshone the Bucks in last season's playoffs, winning the first-round series 4-2.
Antetokounmpo is in peak form, averaging an impressive 32.1 points, 12.1 rebounds, and 6.1 assists per game this fall. However, it's point guard Damian Lillard who leads the Bucks in assists, averaging 7.2 per game. Despite being listed as “probable” due to a knee injury, Giannis has powered through pain all season. Meanwhile, Khris Middleton and Ryan Rollins remain sidelined.
A Healthier Pacers Squad Ready to Shine
In contrast to the Bucks, the Indiana Pacers come into tonight’s matchup nearly injury-free. Power forward Pascal Siakam leads the charge with 20.5 points per game, while Tyrese Haliburton, despite being off last year’s form, contributes 15.3 points and a stellar 8.5 assists per game.
While the Pacers' season has started with more losses than wins, there’s no reason to panic. The Eastern Conference is significantly weaker than the Western Conference this year, leaving plenty of room for teams to secure playoff spots even with sub-.500 records.
Betting on The Pacers vs Bucks
1. The odds on Milwaukee don’t offer good value.
2. The Pacers appear more cohesive as a team compared to the Bucks.
3. With Giannis nursing a minor injury, the Pacers are well-positioned to capitalize.
Our pick: 4 units on an away win for the Pacers in Milwaukee at +182 odds.
