MILWAUKEE -- The Pacers-Bucks matchup is turning into one of the NBA's chippiest rivalries after last year's game-ball controversy and the hotly contested first-round playoff series that followed.
Tempers have stayed relatively contained in Saturday's game so far, but there is a flagrant foul on the board.
Pacers forward Aaron Nesmith was called for a flagrant foul penalty one when he chased down Bucks two-time MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo from behind, threw his arm up and ended up bringing Antetokounmpo down to the floor by his biceps.
Officials reviewed the play and determined there was a wind-up and that Nesmith didn't really make a play on the ball.
