(INDIANAPOLIS, IN) - TJ Ford tied a career-high with 34 points as the Indiana Pacers picked up their sixth-straight home win, a 107-99 victory over the Milwaukee Bucks.

Mike Dunleavy, Jarrett Jack and Rasho Nesterovic added 14 points apiece and Troy Murphy had eleven points and 13 rebounds as the pacers made up for the absence of leading scorer Danny Granger. Granger sat out the game with a sore knee and injuries to his right hand and elbow.

Charlie Villanueva scored 28 points before fouling out late in the fourth quarter to lead Milwaukee with Richard Jefferson adding 19.

The Pacers improve to 18-and-28. Their longest homestand of the season continues Friday night when the Miami Heat come to Conseco Fieldhouse.
