Sunday, January 29th finds the New Orleans Pelicans playing the Milwaukee Bucks for the second and final time this season. The Bucks won the initial meeting 128-119 on December 19th.
The Pelicans are completing a back-to-back set having lost 103-113 to the Wizards on Saturday while the Bucks beat the Pacers 141-131 on Friday.
Last season, the squads played twice with each team winning on their home court. The Pelicans hold the all-time record having bested the Bucks in 28 of their 44 matches.
*Editor’s Note: Statistics and rankings are current as of this writing, Saturday evening, January 28th. Numbers may vary slightly entering games on Sunday, January 29th.
New Orleans Pelicans
In his first game back from a 29-game absence Brandon Ingram played 25:39 struggling to find a rhythm and shake off the rust (4 of 18).
Ingram still found ways to impact the game with 13 points, five rebounds, five assists, and a steal.
The Pelicans hoped the return of Ingram would help them snap the losing streak but they lost their six in a row and have now lost seven in a row.
Stats
Offensively, the Pelicans rank 11th for scoring averaging 115.3 points per game while shooting 47.8% from the field and 35.8% from the perimeter ranking 11th and 17th respectively.
Defensively, the Pelicans allow opponents to score 113.1 points per game, ranking 14th. New Orleans holds their opponents to 47.3% from the field ranking 16th and boasts the best perimeter opponent ranking of 34.1%.
Zion Williamson (hamstring), Dyson Daniels (ankle), and E.J. Liddell (knee) are out.
Milwaukee Bucks
It was the best Khris Middleton has looked since returning from injury as he scored 17 points in 15 minutes. Giannis Antetokounmpo led the way for his club with a double-double of 41 points and 12 rebounds along with six assists, a steal, and a block.
The Pacers elected to utilize a hack-a-Giannis strategy late in the match as the star had struggled from the stipe (7 of 18) although he was much more successful in the final frame.
All five starters plus two reserves scored in double-figures as the Bucks jumped out to a 15-point first quarter lead scoring 45 points entered halftime with 85 points on the scoreboard.
Stats
Opponents score the seventh-fewest points with the Bucks allowing 111.9 per game limiting opponents to 45.7% from the field and 35.0% from deep ranking fourth and eighth respectively.
Offensively, the Bucks score 113.6 points per game ranking 18th, while shooting 46.0% from the field and 36.0% from the perimeter ranking 23rd and 16th in the latter two categories.
AJ Green (ankle) is questionable for Sunday. Bobby Portis (MCL strain) will miss at least two weeks. Serge Ibaka (personal) and the team mutually agreed to move him to a team where he’ll have a bigger role.

Free New Orleans Pelicans vs. Milwaukee Bucks NBA Prediction:
When the Wizards beat you by double-digits, you’re on a seven-game losing streak, and facing the likes of the Bucks the odds are things are not in your favor.
Milwaukee also has the rest advantage and have been showcasing more offensive burst with the team close to healthy again.
That said… 9.5 points feels just a tad too rich for them so I’ll take the points.
