The Indiana Pacers continue their dissent into unfamiliar territory, getting blown out on the road to the Washington Wizards, suffering their third straight loss for the first time since they suffered a five game skid at the end of 2017. Effort has never been a question for the Pacers even when they have struggled, but this Indiana team that lost tonight came dangerous close tonight.
The Pacers did look good early. They hit their first five shots and scored 18 points in the first six minutes, but all the while, they allowed the Wizards to hang in the game.
