The Pacers have some work to do if they want to extend their winning streak to five games. They trail the Houston Rockets 54-49 as they head into the locker room for halftime at Toyota Center. The Blue & Gold are looking are their fifth-straight win and first over a team with a winning record.
The Pacers used a 14-5 run in the second quarter to grab a 47-38 with 5:00 remaining in the half. But the Rockets responded on a 16-2 run to close out the quarter to grab the lead as the halftime buzzer sounded. Domantas Sabonis and Doug McDermott are leading the way for the Pacers with 11 points apiece.
