The Indiana Pacers have struggled with injury but their depth is winning games.
Even with the loss of T.J. Warren and Jeremy Lamb, the Indiana Pacers have a 6-2 record thanks to a strong start from the second unit. Aaron Holiday has slid into the starting lineup, allowing Justin Holiday and Doug McDermott to provide shooting in that bench group.
