The Pacers are back at the Fieldhouse on Monday night to host the annual visit from the Los Angeles Lakers.
The Pacers continue trying to work through injuries with Myles Turner still questionable after missing the loss in Washington over the weekend and Domas Sabonis still out. The jumbled rotation with two key big men unavailable remains a work in progress as the Pacers try to keep pace in the tightly bunched Eastern Conference playoff race.
With no draft pick to tank for, the Lakers have been playing better of late, really since about mid-January while still playing young guns Lonzo Ball and Kyle Kuzma.
