The 1-10 Indiana Pacers will conclude their four-game road trip on Thursday night at 9 p.m. ET against the 7-5 Phoenix Suns, who are on the second half of a back-to-back after defeating the Dallas Mavericks on Wednesday.
After trading Kevin Durant and waiving Bradley Beal in the offseason, many expected the Suns to be near the bottom of the standings this season. They missed the postseason last season, and their outlook didn't look too bright as they re-tooled their roster. However, so far, they look great as they own the No. 7 seed in the Western Conference and have won six of their last seven games.
