Returning home to Indianapolis, the Preseason Pacers moved to 3-0 with a double figure win over the Chicago Bulls, though from a game standpoint, it had its fair share of concerns. The Pacers played against a short-handed Chicago roster and were largely bailed out by the back-up Bulls’ inability to put the ball in the basket.
The Pacers held Chicago to just 37.6% shooting and 5-27 from three point range, which helped cover up Indiana’s chronic turnover issues. The Pacers struggled all night to control possession with 28 miscues, leading to a lopsided 30-13 defeat in points off turnovers.
