MILWAUKEE, Feb. 11 (UPI) -- Richard Jefferson matched his season-best effort with 32 points Wednesday, boosting Milwaukee to a 122-110 victory over Indiana.

The Bucks improved to 4-4 since the loss of leading scorer Michael Redd to a season-ending knee injury and they are also playing without center Andrew Bogut (back) and Luke Ridnour (thumb).

Charlie Bell picked up some of the slack with 20 points off the bench and Charlie Villanueva added 17. The Bucks shot 53 percent from the floor.

Indiana was led by Danny Granger's 26 points and Troy Murphy's 23. Over its three previous games, the Pacers had defeated division leaders Cleveland and Orlando.

The Pacers, however, lost on the road for the ninth straight time and they go into the All-Star break with a 6-22 record away from home. Their last road victory came on Jan. 7 in Phoenix.
