To kick off the weekend, the Pacers are in Boston to take on the Celtics for the fourth and final time this season. Indiana has lost four straight road contests against Boston; they have not won at TD Garden since 2018.
Despite the Celtics playing at nearly full strength, the Pacers are hanging around after the first half. The Blue & Gold are trailing 68-61 at halftime.
Tyrese Haliburton had a stellar half to lead the way. The young guard has a game-high 22 points on 8-of-9 shooting after two quarters. Terry Taylor and Goga Bitadze follow with eight apiece.
