Playing without Victor Oladipo has become a regularity for the Indiana Pacers over the last 10 games, but they were issued a new challenge when they took the court without Domantas Sabonis, missing his second game of the year with food poisoning. On the surface, that feels like a problem, but in the only other game Sabonis missed, the Pacers won by 20.
Part of that was due to the play of Kyle O’Quinn, who had 16 points in the win. Not much changed from then to now, as it was O’Quinn again stepping in after sitting out the last four games.
