It’s Sunday, April 27, and the Indiana Pacers (50-32) and Milwaukee Bucks (48-34) are all set to square off from Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee for Game 4 of the first round.
The Bucks earned a monumental Game 3 win at home over the Pacers, 117-101. Pascal Siakam led the way for the Pacers with 28 points, but that wasn’t enough against Giannis Antetokounmpo and Gary Trent‘s 37 points apiece. Damian Lillard only scored seven points on 2-for-11 from the field, so his efficiency will be something to watch in Game 4.
The Pacers are currently 20-20 on the road with a point differential of 2, while the Bucks have a 6-4 record in their last ten games at home. We’ve got all the info and analysis you need to know ahead of the game, including the latest info on how to catch tipoff, odds, recent team performance, player stats, and of course, our predictions, picks & best bets for the game from our modeling tools and staff of experts.

Expert picks & predictions for Sunday’s Pacers vs. Bucks game
Rotoworld Best Bet
Vaughn Dalzell (@VmoneySports) leans Brook Lopez Under 9.5 Points + Rebounds:
“In the first three games of this series, Brook Lopez hasn’t played more than 21 minutes and is coming off his worst performance in the Bucks’ only win. That’s not a good sign for his minutes moving forward. Bobby Portis played almost twice as many minutes in Game 3 as Lopez and is a much better offensive threat and matchup for Myles Turner rather than Lopez. Lopez has a low 9.5 prop for his points and rebounds, but I could only look at his Unders.”
