Milwaukee Bucks vs Indiana Pacers first basket best bet: Jrue Holiday (+800)
The Bucks can be expected to have the first possession in their road date with the Pacers on Monday night. Milwaukee big man Brook Lopez is one of the best there is in the department jump balls. Lopez has won the most jumps in the entire NBA this season (60) and registers at 66.7 percent. He will likely be going up against Jalen Smith of Indiana, who is just 3 for 9 in the circle so far in 2022-23. Smith is Myles Turner's backup, and Turner is questionable with a back injury. Either way, Lopez should have no trouble. Turner registers at a dreadful 37.8 percent (28 won, 46 lost).'
