Game Recap
Neither team had any interest in playing defence early, with the Bucks leading 15-14 less than six minutes in and both squads making a fair few defensive errors. Prince was hot early for the Bucks, going 3/4 from distance to start. However, some silly live-ball turnovers had the Bucks down 28-32 after one.
The Bucks started the second quarter in a malaise. Continuous basic defensive errors killed them early on: two Bucks going with one Pacer running down the lane while Mathurin got a wide-open wing three being the best example. And as the teams came out of the timeout, another turnover inbounding the basketball! Brilliant. Thankfully, the Bucks then made a point of moving the ball and answered with their own 12-0 run to take a one-point lead with 4:26 left in the frame, including a Brook Lopez five-point cameo. Pacers up 57-55 at half, leading fast-break points 19-3.
Dame was lively early in the third with five quick points (after scoring just two in the first half) along with a nice dime to Giannis cutting down the lane. Both teams really went blow for blow for next five minutes or so with the margin remaining around three points in either team’s favour. The non-Giannis lineup did decently to tread water over the final five minutes, game tied at 88 after three.
Pascal Siakam powered the Pacers to a 10-point lead early in the fourth quarter as Giannis remained on the bench. Giannis finally checked back in, and the lead was halved via two Lopez buckets with 7:24 remaining. Buckets from Lopez and Trent equalled the game at 103. A KPJ turnover led to the Haliburton runout dun to give them a five-point lead, but the Bucks came back with two layups. Then TP had an awesome defensive possession on Tyrese, followed by GA kicking out to Trent for the deep-corner triple to put Milwaukee up 112-110 with just over a minute left. Nembhard took two threes on one possession and missed both, but the Bucks couldn’t make their own three down the other end. Then, Nembhard drove to the hoop and got fouled but made only one. Bucks ball with 6.8 seconds to go, Dame got fouled and made both. Indy timeout with 3.9 seconds remaining. And of course… the unimaginable happened. Giannis fouled Tyrese Haliburton on a corner three. Just unimaginably stupid basketball. Pacers win.
Stat That Stood Out
Milwaukee got destroyed in fast-break points, losing 3-31. No, that is not a typo.

Only 30% of Milwaukee police supervisors live in the city. A new contract has an incentive

A new contract for Milwaukee police supervisors was approved by a city committee on March 20 and for the first time ever includes an incentive to reside in the city.
The Common Council Finance and Personnel Committee voted 4-1 to give police supervisors a 1% incentive boost for residing in Milwaukee proper. The resolution now moves to the full council.
The deal reached by the Milwaukee Police Supervisors Organization and officials, sets the salaries for police leadership between 2025 and 2027 and will in-part be paid retroactively.
The contract calls for a 2% increase year-to-year for 2025, a 3.25% increase for 2026, and a 3% increase in 2027.
MPSO didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.
The Milwaukee Police Association, the union for the city’s rank-and-file officers, approved a four-year contract last year that gave a 14.25% raise and backpay.
Ald. Peter Burgelis voted in favor of the supervisors’ agreement at the committee hearing March 20 and he championed the first-ever residency incentive for sworn supervisors.
General city employees already have a residency incentive of 4%, but now police supervisors would also receive a 1% incentive boost for residing in Milwaukee.
According to Burgelis, only 30% – 81 of 269 – of Milwaukee police supervisors currently live in the city.
“This is the reset,” Burgelis said. “Since city residency was stripped by the Republican state legislature in 2013 and started in 2016, residency was treated as optional and irrelevant. If you serve Milwaukee, you should live in Milwaukee.”
“Residency drives better outcomes,” Burgelis added. “When employees live here, they understand the streets, the schools, and the stakes. That translates into stronger leadership, smarter decision-making, and more trust with residents.”

Utah Jazz vs Milwaukee Bucks: Recap and final score
With most of their rotation players out, the Utah Jazz likely expected to drop one to a Bucks team that played the roster meant to convince Giannis Antetokounmpo to stay in Milwaukee. Utah ended up beating the Bucks 128-96. Probably not the best thing for the Bucks to prove to Giannis that he can win there.
The best player on the floor was Ace Bailey, who scored a career high 33 points with 9 rebounds and 4 assists. Bailey is turning into a real weapon for the Jazz, who are doing everything they can to add one more top-8 pick in the upcoming draft. Bailey continues to get better and better every night showing more and more to his game. Not only is Bailey’s shooting getting more and more efficient, but he’s also showing great defensive chops with 3 steals and 1 block in this game. Not only that, his 4 assists are a sign of a burgeoning ability to playmake for others. Utah has a chance to win the lottery again after this season, but they appear to have a young star already from last year.
Ace Bailey wasn’t the only player to shine, Cody Williams is also improving night after night. He’s improving in all aspects of his game, especially with his scoring. Williams had 23 points in the first half and looked completely comfortable all night, scoring on the hapless Bucks. Williams was a fantastic 10/15 from the field and 1/2 from three, but also dished out 5 assists. Night after night, it’s getting clearer and clearer that Williams is becoming a core part of the future and a player that Utah was right to draft at #10.
Kyle Filipowski continues to show he can be a positive contributor, although he’s got to find a way to improve on defense. It may not be something he can ever do, but it’s the one thing that is going to keep him from being a consistent rotation player.
Finally, there has to be a huge shoutout to the Utah Jazz front office for finding some nice players from the G-League. Blake Hinson, who is on a two-way contract, has been a lights-out shooter for the Jazz, and tonight was no different. Hinson shot a blistering 4/7 from three, and it looks like something he should be able to replicate in the years to come. Andersson Garcia has had a nice defensive presence for the Jazz since joining. Tonight, he played all 48 minutes and played with high energy all game. I’m not sure that Garcia will be on the Jazz next season, but he’s proven he’s a player worth looking at and bringing into their development system. He could be a potential fit down the road.
It’s not a good night for the Jazz in terms of tanking for the lottery, it likely puts the 4-spot out of reach, but it was a night where you got to see the future of the Jazz in Ace Bailey and Cody Williams, and that future is looking bright.

Spring Training Game Thread #25: Milwaukee Brewers (10-14) vs. Texas Rangers (15-10)
We’re officially one week away from Opening Day. The roster is coming more into focus as the day gets closer, but there are a few games to still play this spring. Tonight, the Brewers host the Rangers.
Prior to today’s game, the Brewers announced a few (perhaps surprising) roster moves. Blake Perkins, Tyler Black, and Logan Henderson were optioned to Triple-A, and Cooper Pratt was reassigned to the minor league camp. Perkins appeared to be in line for a spot on the Opening Day roster, but he will start in Nashville instead. While Perkins has not had a bad spring, Brandon Lockridge’s spring has been strong enough that he may have played his way into a roster spot. This also means Garrett Mitchell is likely ready for the regular season, especially if the Brewers are making this move a week before the start of the season. With these roster moves, 34 players — 18 pitchers and 16 position players — remain in camp, with eight more cuts between now and next Thursday.
Both Lockridge and Mitchell are in tonight’s lineup for their game against the Rangers. Sal Frelick takes the other spot in the outfield and is batting leadoff. Joey Ortiz and Christian Yelich fill out the top of the lineup, and Andrew Vaughn bats fourth behind them. Gary Sánchez and Luis Rengifo bat sixth and seventh, and David Hamilton finishes out the lineup for tonight. Many of the projected Opening Day starters are in the lineup, but the full lineup won’t come together until the remaining Brewers return from the World Baseball Classic.

Brandon Woodruff gets the start tonight for the Brewers. This will be an important start for Woodruff to see if he will be ready for the start of the season. He has only appeared in one game this spring, a two-inning scoreless start against the Angels on March 13. He allowed two hits and a walk while striking out three. In today’s start, the plan is for him to pitch four innings. Also scheduled to pitch tonight are Grant Anderson, Trevor Megill, and Jared Koenig.
First pitch is scheduled for 8:10 p.m. The game will be broadcast on the Brewers Radio Network.
