Pacers final score: Hawks soar past Pacers 133-112
Though their loss to Cleveland was only tangentially related to trades made prior to tipoff, tonight’s was far more affected by such decisions after a busy afternoon resulted in a major shakeup of the Indiana Pacers roster. Sending Domantas Sabonis, Justin Holiday, and Jeremy would leave the on-court Pacers with just eight active players against the Atlanta Hawks.
The Hawks, a team that took on a tough loss on Sunday, came out with a purpose, putting it to the Pacers from the jump. Atlanta shot 7-9 from three point range and scored 40 points, putting up 36 more in the second to finish the half shooting 66% from the floor and 10-14 from deep.
