Milwaukee Bucks @ Indiana Pacers – 7PM ET

Tony Battalio

The Milwaukee Bucks are off to a decent start this season, and they will be looking to keep the momentum rolling here on Thursday night on the road in Indiana against the Pacers. The two-man tandem of Damian Lillard and Giannis Antetokounmpo are putting up incredible numbers throughout the early part of the season, and they will be looking to keep it going here in this one against their central division rivals. They will likely be without Khris Middleton in this game on Thursday night, and they will have to overcome his absence and still pick up a much-needed early season momentum boosting victory against the Pacers on the road. Milwaukee comes into this game with four victories through their first six games of the season. Now will be looking to make it five out of seven with another quality performance here and this one on Thursday night on the road in Indiana.

The Indiana Pacers come into this game to get a solid early season victory over one of the top teams in the NBA. Indiana is off to a pretty decent start this season themselves as they come into this game as winners of four of their first seven games of the season and they will be looking for their fifth victory of the year here on Thursday night at home. They will be fully healthy for this game against the Milwaukee Bucks, while Milwaukee is missing one of their key pieces and Indiana will look to take advantage of that here in this one at home. Point guard Tyrese Haliburton will have to put up a quality performance in this game if Indiana wants to get the job done against the Milwaukee Bucks. He will likely put up fantastic numbers but unfortunately for Indiana I just don’t see them grabbing a win over Milwaukee, even without Middleton in the lineup here on Thursday night.

Atlanta Hawks @ Orlando Magic – 9:30PM ET

Tony Battalio

The Atlanta Hawks come into this game looking to get a solid early season victory over the Orlando Magic here on Thursday night in Mexico City. After a very slow start to the season, Atlanta has picked it up over the last several games, and they will be looking to keep them a minimum rolling here in this one on Thursday night on the road as they look to grab a win over their division rivals. Atlanta comes into this game as winners of four out of their first seven games of the season, and they will be looking for their fifth victory of the year here on Thursday night against Orlando as Trae Young and Dejounte Murray will be looking to lead the way for the Atlanta Hawks here in this one. Atlanta is pretty healthy coming into this one which should give them an advantage over a beat up Orlando team.

The Orlando Magic come into this game, looking to grab a victory in Mexico City, despite being beat up and injured throughout the early part of the season. There is a real possibility that they will be missing several key players for this game against the Atlanta Hawks and the guys they do have left on the floor will be looking to overcome those issues and lead them to a solid early season victory as they search for their fifth win of the young season. They come into this game with an identical record of four and three just like Atlanta and both teams will be looking for a solid victory here in this one. I look for this to be a close and competitive game throughout, but I don’t think Orlando can overcome the injuries and I think it’ll be Atlanta that picks up the victory here in this one on Thursday night.
