Oladipo Returns As Pacers Top Bucks

Last updated on Thursday, December 13, 2018

(INDIANAPOLIS, IN) - Victor Oladipo returned to the Pacers lineup as the Blue and Gold hammered the Milwaukee Bucks 113-97.

Thaddeus Young led Indiana with a season-high 25 points, 11 rebounds, five steals, four assists while Myles Turner added 23 points and seven boards of his own.

Oladido scored 12 points, 10 rebounds and six assists in 29 minutes and said it felt good to get his legs back under him.

"I thought he was perfect," Nate McMillan said of Oladipo's performance. "When you've been off for as long as he has, you focus on the defensive end of the floor and then offensively let the game come to you. I thought he did a good job moving the ball and getting guys involved."

The Pacers dominated on the boards, out-rebounding Milwaukee 55-43 and held Bucks' All-Star Giannis Antetokounmpo, who is averaging 26.5 points per game, to just 12 points.
