The Indiana Pacers continued their win-loss trend with a convincing victory over the Charlotte Hornets at home. The Pacers did lead most of the night, but with Kemba Walker struggling early and Indiana not building upon the lead they did have, it wasn’t the most confident lead, especially not after the Hornets wiped it out by halftime with a 9-2 run.
Out of the half, however, Paul George scored six quick points to set the tone for the Pacers, who scored more in the third than they did in the entire second half against New York, outscoring Charlotte 33-16, featuring a 15-0 run.
