Sacramento was lucky not to be trailing by more than four after the end of the first quarter. In the second consecutive game, the opposing team got off to a hot shooting start. The Indiana Pacers were 11/16 from the field but were also negatively affected by seven turnovers. Their leading scorer was Bojan Bogdanovic, who had 11 points on 4/5 shooting. The Kings had three players with six points: Buddy Hield, Nemanja Bjelica and Bogdan Bogdanovic off the bench. Their defense was sloppy but Kosta Koufos helped massively by locking down the paint.
