For the second time in as many nights, the Indiana Pacers used a big third quarter to fuel them to their fourth straight victory, topping the Orlando Magic 105-97 to wrap up their Florida road trip.
The Pacers led for much of the first half, but found themselves in a hole at halftime after surrendering an 11-0 run to close the second quarter. The game swung back in Indiana’s favor in the third, with them using a 20-5 run to go up 78-70. The run was impressive not only on its own, but in how they kept the Magic at bay despite missing numerous opportunities themselves to blow the game wide open.
