The Pacers are in Brooklyn tonight taking on a Nets roster that features eight NBA veterans with 10 or more years of experience, including superstars James Harden and Kevin Durant. Searching for its second win of the season, Indiana is without the talents of starting point guard Malcolm Brogdon tonight. The veteran guard injured his left hamstring against the Toronto Raptors two nights ago.
At halftime, Indiana finds itself in a close fight. The Pacers built up a 16-point advantage in the second quarter by playing with intense energy. However, the Nets outscored the squad, 32-17, in the frame to take a 58-55 lead into halftime.
