The Indiana Pacers got the response they were looking for after the frustrating loss to Philadelphia, blowing out the Memphis Grizzlies to wrap up their two game home stand. The Pacers put on an offensive clinic, scoring a season high 134 points on 60% shooting in the wire-to-wire victory.
The Pacers opened up the game with a pair of threes, methodically expanding their lead throughout the first half, heading into the locker room up 71-50. Though a quarter ending foul on T.J. McConnell would get De’Anthony Melton to the free throw line to give Memphis at third quarter victory, Indiana would respond in the fourth, putting a stamp on the game despite a strong close from Richmond native Desmond Bane.
