The Pacers play the first of three scrimmage games in Orlando when they face the Portland Trail Blazers on Thursday.
Nate McMillan didn’t commit to a lineup or playing rotation with a few injuries mucking up his best laid plans. The primary concern on the injury front is the plantar fasciitis bothering Domantas Sabonis which will keep him sidelined against the Blazers, as he has been for the past several days of practice.
The game will be played with four 10-minute quarters instead of the usual 12-minute quarters in an effort to let teams ease back into action.
