The San Antonio Spurs took a 4-point lead to start the game, but the Indiana Pacers went on a 20-4 run, taking the lead and never letting go for the rest of the contest. The Pacers won, 99-91.
Indiana continued their post-All-Star trend of minimizing turnovers — committing only 9 — which brings their average since then to 12.5. It hasn’t led to a particularly better offense, but giving your opponents fewer opportunities is always a good thing.
Paul George recent hot streak cooled a bit with a more pedestrian 23 points on 7 of 20 shooting, but the star of the night was Monta Ellis with 26 points on 8 of 13 shooting, including 2 of 4 from deep.
