Pacers close out tough win over Celtics on Sabonis game winner

The Indiana Pacers dug deep and got gutsy in their first back-to-back of the season, topping the Boston Celtics in the final seconds thanks to a big-time drive to the basket by Domantas Sabonis, giving Indiana the 108-107 victory.

The Pacers shortened their rotation on the second night of a back-to-back with Victor Oladipo resting, but somehow got better as the game wore on, especially from Sabonis. He logged a game high 41 minutes as T.J. Warren and Malcolm Brogdon each eclipsed 36 themselves.

As a team, they actually looked their worst out of the gate, quickly falling behind 15-4.
