Old-time American Basketball Association rivals tangle Saturday night at Bankers Life Fieldhouse in Indianapolis, where the Brooklyn Nets visit the Indiana Pacers.
The Nets and Pacers were two of the four ABA teams admitted to the NBA in 1976 as part of the merger agreement between the leagues and both were charter franchises in the old rival league.
Brooklyn (1-1) got its first win of the season Friday night at home, beating the New York Knicks 107-105. Indiana (1-1), meanwhile, returns home after taking its first loss Friday night, a 118-101 drubbing at the hands of the Milwaukee Bucks in Milwaukee.
