The Indiana Pacers hung in there for a few minutes against the Toronto Raptors, but the final score didn’t lie tonight as the Raptors pulled away in a hurry to extend Indiana’s losing streak to three games. By hung in there, that’s largely thanks to the work of Oshae Brissett, who scored 11 of Indiana’s first 16 points, making it a two-point game midway through the first quarter.
Unfortunately for the Pacers, Precious Achiuwa and the Raptors unloaded from three point range, hitting six to end the quarter on a 23-5 run. Things didn’t get much better from there with Toronto extending their lead out to 28 with four minutes remaining in the second quarter when the game was delayed due to a fire concern with one of the speakers in Scotiabank Arena.
