Milwaukee Bucks vs. Indiana Pacers Prop Pick: Can Pacers Contain Khris Middleton in Game 4?

With Dame and Giannis likely out, the Bucks will need another huge game out of Khris Middleton. All eyes will be on the Bucks' final remaining star as the team tries to stay alive.

Milwaukee Bucks vs. Indiana Pacers Prediction

Middleton went for 42 Points and four three-pointers in the Game 3 OT loss in Indiana. He hit an extremely tough fadeaway three at the end of regulation to force OT, and banked in another one late in OT to tie the game. With how well he played, I’d expect Indiana’s game plan on defense will focus heavily on stopping and containing him as the Bucks new top scoring option. They didn’t send him many double teams in Game 3, and that will change here in Game 4. Doc mentioned in a press conference “They chose not to trap Khris. They will tomorrow. I’ll guarantee that.”

That paired with how Indiana likes to defend the perimeter (fewest three's allowed on the season & 33 3-point attempts per game allowed to the Bucks through Game 3) will make it tough for Middleton to cover this 2.5 threes line. Prior to Game 3, he only took three and four 3-point attempts, making only one three in each.
