Monday, January 16th finds the Indiana Pacers playing the Milwaukee Bucks in the first of four scheduled matches. The Bucks will host again on March 16th while the Pacers will host on January 27th and March 29th.
For one thing, both teams last played on Saturday with the Pacers falling 112-130 to the Grizzlies while the Bucks got swept in the baseball set by the Heat losing 95-111 on Saturday with Giannis Antetokounmpo out again.
Last season the clubs played four times with the Bucks taking all four contests and holding a current eight-game winning streak against the Pacers dating back to March 4th, 2020. Also, the Bucks hold the all-time record with 111 wins in 202 matches versus Indiana.
*Editor’s Note: Statistics and rankings are current as of this writing, Sunday evening, January 15th. Numbers may vary slightly entering games on Monday, January 16th.
Indiana Pacers
Not having Tyrese Haliburton was going to present the Pacers with a major challenge but also not having Myles Turner in the same games is highlighting just how valuable he is to the team.
What’s more, whether that ups his trade value is the question. If we’re to believe Rick Carlisle he wants to keep Turner but that might not be his choice.
In any case, it could depend on what the conversations are between the front office with Turner and his agent and whether they’re willing to pay him the bag. Also, the trade rumors about him are heating up again so it’s worth keeping an eye on.
Pacers Stats
Until now, the Pacers average 115.4 points per game ranking 10th while shooting 45.9% from the field and 36.2% from the perimeter which ranks 23rd and 12th respectively.
Also, defensively, Indy allows 115.9 points which rank 21st while these opponents shoot 46.7% from the field and 36.6% from the perimeter ranking 11th and 25th.
To summarize the injuries, Myles Turner (back spasms) and Goga Bitadze (illness) are questionable. Tyrese Haliburton (elbow/knee sprains), Kendall Brown (tibia fracture), and Daniel Theis (knee) are out.
Milwaukee Bucks
It was a bit surprising Giannis Antetokounmpo sat in consecutive games against the Heat. There are two schools of thought on this situation.
Either the knee injury was more than just minor soreness — or they really don’t care that much about regular season records caring much more about getting Giannis, Jrue Holiday, Khris Middleton, and Brook Lopez as healthy as possible to the postseason.
Perhaps it’s a bit of both scenarios but I’d lean more toward it being the latter than the former.
Bucks Stats
Opponents score the sixth-fewest points with the Bucks allowing 110.9 per game limiting opponents to 45.2% from the field and 34.5% from deep ranking third and seventh respectively.
Offensively, the Bucks score 111.8 points per game (23rd), while shooting 45.2% from the field and 34.8% from the perimeter ranking 26th and 19th in the latter two categories.
To summarize the injuries, Giannis Antetokounmpo, (knee), Jrue Holiday (ankle), and Bobby Portis (quad contusion) are probable for Monday. Additionally, Serge Ibaka (personal), Joe Ingles (knee/injury management), and Khris Middleton are out.

Free Indiana Pacers vs. Milwaukee Bucks NBA Prediction:
Until now, the Cinderella Pacers are reeling without their cornerstone and big man while the Bucks have struggled to score without Antetokounmpo.
To that end, the latter is expected to return to the hardwood Monday so take the Bucks to cover and win.
