One of the most anticipated games of the year turned into a resounding dud for the Indiana Pacers, getting blown out by the Sacramento Kings. Falling behind by double figures in the first quarter may be nothing new for Indiana, but the Kings made sure they never climbed back into it tonight, handing the Pacers their worst loss of the year.
The Pacers appeared to have something early, jumping out to a 5-1 lead on a pair of wide open looks from Jalen Smith and Andrew Nembhard, but a quick timeout by Mike Brown made sure that was that, kicking off a 6-0 run and a lead the rest of the way.
