The Indiana Pacers finally got their first win since Victor Oladipo’s season-ending injury, pulling off a gutsy win in Miami.
I call the win gutsy because the Pacers found a way to get it done despite going on an incredibly cold spell from late in the 3rd quarter to the middle of the 4th quarter. Thankfully, their defense dug in.
They only conceded 11 points in the entire 4th frame (they only scored 11 themselves but they were already winning so it didn’t matter as much). In the second half, the team only gave up 32. It was a sensational defensive performance.
