5. Friday, Oct. 19 versus the Indiana Pacers

This game against the Indiana Pacers is the Bucks’ second of the season and their first ever home game at the newly built and named Fiserv Forum. The game is likely to be the first of many sellouts for the season and will allow the fan base to set the bar for the upcoming year.

Having it be the first ever home game at Fiserv would be enough in and of itself to land a spot on this list. However, that’s not the only bonus this game has going.

It also comes against the Pacers. Indiana finished second in the Central and fifth in the Eastern Conference last season. With LeBron James leaving the Cleveland Cavaliers and departing for the Los Angeles Lakers, the Pacers are one of, if not the favorite to win the division. This game will provide an early measuring stick for Milwaukee to see how close they are to the Pacers’ level.
