The Pacers are squaring off against the Detroit Pistons tonight inside Bankers Life Fieldhouse. Once again, the squad finds itself shorthanded in the front court. Domantas Sabonis, Myles Turner, and Goga Bitadze remain sidelined with various injuries as the group fights for a coveted playoff spot. Oshae Brissett and JaKarr Sampson have the primary post duties tonight.
Despite leading by as many as 15, Indiana finds itself trailing 61-58 after two quarters of play. A late 12-2 Detroit run over the final 2:38 pushed the visitors in front. The Blue & Gold shot just 8-of-25 (32.0 percent) in the second quarter.
