Pacers Visit Bucks for Divisional Clash
The Indiana Pacers will visit the Milwaukee Bucks at the brand-new Fiserv Forum on Friday.

Milwaukee (1-0) will christen its new arena on Friday, hosting its divisional rival for the debut match. The Bucks are fresh off a win against the Charlotte Hornets on the road in their season opener. While they earned a 113-112 win, Milwaukee's performance left much to be desired. The Bucks gave up a 20-point lead in the second half and allowed 41 points to Charlotte point guard Kemba Walker. Still, the Bucks squeaked out a win, thanks largely to budding superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo. The 'Greek Freak' wowed in the Bucks' first contest, scoring 25 points and pulling down a whopping 18 rebounds.

Indiana (1-0), on the other hand, took its season opener in commanding fashion. The Pacers routed the Memphis Grizzlies, 111-83, behind dominant top-to-bottom performances. All-Star guard Victor Oladipo filled the stat sheet, scoring 16 points, dishing out five assists, and grabbing five rebounds. Domantas Sabonis finished with a double-double, grabbing 15 rebounds and scoring 14 points. Sabonis was a key piece of the Pacers' dominant effort on the boards, where they out-rebounded Memphis 57-28.

Both teams will look to build on their strong starts in Friday's contest.
