Milwaukee Bucks Game Preview: March 5 at Indiana Pacers
By Adam McGee
Riding the momentum from Sunday night’s win, the Milwaukee Bucks will look for revenge against the Indiana Pacers on Monday.
The Milwaukee Bucks will wrap-up a lengthy run of matchups against fellow Eastern Conference playoff hopefuls on Monday, and they’ll be hoping to do so in positive fashion.
The Bucks travel to Indianapolis to face the high-flying Indiana Pacers for the second time in a matter of days.
The Pacers, who have been one of the current season’s true surprise packages, defeated the Bucks 109-96 on Friday at the Bradley Center, taking a 2-1 lead in the teams’ season series in the process.

To date, the Bucks have generally managed to avoid losing any of the season series that could take on extra importance in tiebreaker scenarios — although they’re not exactly securing wins either — and Monday’s game could prove important down the line as a Milwaukee win would ensure this series concludes at 2-2 also.
The game comes as the second leg of a back-to-back for both teams, and with notable wins for both after Milwaukee defeated Philadelphia and Indiana beat Washington, there’s no reason why both teams won’t be further buoyed by those games.
With all of that in mind, let’s take a closer look at the action ahead, and how things might play out on Monday night.
