The Bucks and the Pacers head to Sin City to duke it out in the first In-Season Tournament Semi-Final!
Both sides have gone five games unbeaten the the NBA’s new tourney, and will be looking etch their names in the history books as the maiden victors!
The Pacers knocked off league leaders Boston in their quarterfinal, Halliburton catching fire with 26-10-13, while six other Indiana players finishing with double-digit points.
Alternatively, Dame and Giannis combined for 63 points, as the Bucks annihilated the Knicks 146-122!
This side has met once already this season, with the Pacers claiming a 2-point victory, despite the Greek Freak dropping 54 points from 25 shots.
The Total Points Market has hit Overs more often than not when one of these sides are involved, with the Bucks going 14-7 (O/U) and the Pacers a wild 16-3!
I’m backing another scoring fest here, combined with Giannis going big again.
The Pels and the Lakers meet for the first time this season as both side bid to reach the In-Season Tournament Final!
The Pelicans comfortably knocked off the Kings in their quarterfinal, hitting 45% from deep to secure a 10-point win.
Meanwhile, the Lakers held off a fast finishing Sun outfit, with King LeBron chipping in with 31-8-11.
LeBron knows how to win big games, I think the wily veteran will put on a clinic for the young Pels, dropping a triple-double on the way to a maiden in-season MVP award.
