Pelicans, Pacers bring .500 records into matchup

INDIANAPOLIS -- The New Orleans Pelicans and Indiana Pacers -- each with a 5-5 record -- will continue to pursue consistency on Tuesday night in Bankers Life Fieldhouse.

The Pacers are coming off back-to-back road losses -- at Philadelphia (121-110) and at New York (108-101) -- during which their inconsistent defense could not contain the 76ers' J.J. Redick and the Knicks' Kristaps Porzingis.

Redick scored 31 points, including eight 3-pointers, and then Porzingis scored a career-best 40 points as New York rallied from an 84-65 deficit by outscoring Indiana 36-17 in the fourth quarter.
