After a successful five-game road trip, the Pacers (15-8) return to Indianapolis for a challenging two-game homestand, which begins on Monday night against the Los Angeles Clippers (16-7).
Indiana ended its road trip with a winning record after holding off the Knicks in a 104-103 win on Saturday night in New York. Aside from a comfortable win in Memphis, every game on the road trip came down to the final minutes. The Pacers went 2-2 in those close games, collecting wins in Oklahoma City in New York, but falling in Philadelphia and Detroit.
While they are back in the friendly confines of Bankers Life Fieldhouse, the competition does not get any easier this week for the Blue & Gold.
