Tonight the Milwaukee Bucks, though without Giannis Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard, still managed to win game-5 against Indiana with a Danilo Gallinari who was on the court for more than 20 minutes.

The Italian was on the court for 20 minutes and 30 seconds, to be exact, and finished with 4 points and 6 rebounds, not bad for a guy who has really played very little in the last 2 months. He was not very accurate on the shot because he finished his performance with 1 of 3 and 0 of 2 from long distance however he was infallible at the free, 2/2. He only missed 1 ball, so he played cleanly, and finished with a pulus-minus of 11, confirming his good impact on contention.

For Milwaukee the best on the court were Khris Middleton and Bobby Portis, with 29+10r and 29+12r, respectively. Brook Lopez, Malik Beasley and Patrick Beverley reached double figures, with PatBev dishing out a beauty of 12 assists to teammates.

Danilo Gallinari, in short, confirmed himself as a factor also in Game-5 of the series between the Milwaukee Bucks and the Indiana Pacers, after a Game-4 that had seen him starring out of necessity, given Portis’ ejection in the first half. Let’s see if he’ll have the same minutes in the decisive Game-6 in Indianapolis.
