The results of previous matchups with the Charlotte Hornets, the Indiana Pacers' opponent in the win-or-go-home play-in game, might not matter much but they should remember the last one.
Neither team is the same since they last faced off April 2 in Bankers Life Fieldhouse.
The Pacers' win against the Toronto Raptors on Sunday gave them the upper hand as the No. 9 seed and host. The Hornets lost to the Washington Wizards to drop to 10th.
"They've got a lot of weapons offensively," Domantas Sabonis, who returned to action after a thigh contusion made him miss a game Saturday, said of Charlotte.
