Orlando Summer League: Pacers escape Magic

The Indiana Pacers dominated early against the Orlando Magic to open the Orlando Summer League exhibition, using a quick start to build towards a 20-point first half lead. From the third quarter on, however, the Magic returned the favor, outhustling the Pacers to erase the lead and tie the game at 69-69.

From that point, Indiana responded with a 9-0 run to put the game away, led by Nazareth Mithrou-Long, who hit a pair of threes in the run as part of his 16 points for the game. Mithrou-Long had nine points in the fourth, all on threes, as one of five Pacers in double figures.
