Pacers Dominate In Preseason Opener

Last updated on Thursday, October 5, 2017

(MILWAUKEE, WI) - The Indiana Pacers dominated in their preseason opener as they routed the Milwaukee Bucks 104-86.

Myles Turner and Lance Stephenson each had 17 points with Turner also pulling down nine rebounds while Victor Oladipo added 15 points.

Bucks' All-Star Giannis Antetokounmpo did not play in the game.

The Pacers hit eleven 3-pointers in the game and never trailed after going up 2-1 in the early first quarter.

"This team is expecting a lot," Myles Turner said after the game. "I'm expecting to go out and win games. People can say what they want, but we have a competitive group here. This is a team that is going to get after it all year. I think we did a solid job tonight."

The Pacers continue their preseason road trip on Friday when they visit LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers.
