On Friday night, the Milwaukee Bucks will play the Indiana Pacers (at home) for Game 3 of their first-round playoff series. With the Bucks down 0-2 in the series, head coach Doc Rivers made a starting lineup change. Via Eric Nehm of The Athletic : "And there is the starting lineup change from Doc Rivers.
Gary Trent Jr. will start instead of Taurean Prince." The Bucks lost Game 2 by a score of 123-115.
Prince (who is now coming off the bench) had six points, four rebounds and two steals while shooting 2/4 from the field in 19 minutes of playing time. Via Ti Windisch of Gyro Step: "Gary Trent Jr gets the nod but Brook Lopez is still out there. We’ll see if Trent’s screen navigation can make Lopez playable defensively — Indiana’s stretch bigs have been a real problem for him.
" Trent Jr. finished Game 2 with four points, one rebound, one assist and one steal while shooting 1/4 from the field in 30 minutes of playing time..
