It's highly unlikely Brian Bowen will add to Nate McMillan's potential math problem regarding the division of playing time this season, but he did offer a small hint of what could be waiting further down the road. He got himself a career highlight as well.
Bowen scored the first basket of his NBA career in the Pacers' 111-85 victory over Oklahoma City on Tuesday, and if fans didn't think much of it everyone in the locker room certainly did. Bowen received the game ball, which was quickly taken back to be painted to commemorate the landmark moment, as well as a stream of congratulatory comments and friendly trash talk from his teammates.
