For the first time since March 10, the Pacers were back on the court to compete against another NBA team. At halftime of their first scrimmage in the NBA season restart bubble in Orlando, Indiana trailed the Portland Trail Blazers, 45-43.
The Blazers used an early 9-0 run to jump to a 20-9 lead, but the Pacers' offense kicked in to gear after the second unit checked in. Brothers Justin and Aaron Holiday knocked down back-to-back 3-pointers before Doug McDermott converted a three-point play and then drew another foul and hit both free throws to cap a sequence that saw Indiana amass 11 points in four possessions.
