The Pacers rookie big man will be out for a longer stretch than expected as the team continues to figure out how to deal with other short-term injuries.
It's funny how fast a laudable, quality effort can turn into a frustrating missed opportunity, but that's what happened to the Pacers last night in Chicago.
Playing short-handed without George Hill, Rodney Stuckey and Myles Turner, the Pacers played the first 30 minutes of the game trying to ward off a blow out. Then suddenly the Bulls had their own injury issues, losing Derrick Rose for the night, and the Pacers went down the stretch with a chance to steal a win.
