Pacers final score: Wizards hold off Pacers 111-105
In similar fashion to their loss to Chicago, the Indiana Pacers were granted favor from the Washington Wizards to stay in a game they did very little to stay alive. A positive start and a few positive stretches weren’t enough however for Indiana to keep pace with a Wizards team that dominated the glass, coming up with 15 offensive rebounds and outrebounding the Pacers by 20.
The game was ultimately decided in the final four minutes of the second quarter when Washington used a 19-6 run to take a one point deficit to a 12-point lead. The Pacers saw their offense tank when Paul George picked up his third foul in the second quarter, allowing the Wizards to push the game in their favor.
