The Pacers, who eliminated Milwaukee 4-2 in last year's first round, can send the Bucks home once again with a win in Game 5 on Tuesday in Indianapolis. The Bucks have now dropped eight consecutive road playoff games, with the last five of those losses coming at the hands of Indiana.

In the second half, the Bucks made 61.1 percent of their 3-point shots compared to the Pacers, who made only a third of their attempts. Gary Trent Jr. went off for 37 points, tying Giannis Antetokounmpo, and each of them posted at least 20 points in the second half.

The Pacers held a 10-point lead at halftime but lost 117-111 to the Bucks in Game 3 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.
