Pacers vs. Bucks first-round NBA playoff series schedule

The Indiana Pacers play the Milwaukee Bucks in an NBA Eastern Conference first-round playoff series. The Pacers (47-35) are the No. 6 seed and the Bucks (49-33) No. 3, so Milwaukee has the homecourt advantage in the seven-game series.

Milwaukee is expected to be without All-NBA forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf strain) to start the series. Damian Lillard and Khris Middleton are their second- and third-leading scorers.

The Pacers, who are in the playoffs for the first time since 2020, are led by Tyrese Haliburton, Pascal Siakam and Myles Turner.
