Game Recap
The Pacers did everything they could to climb out of an early 20-point deficit against the Atlanta Hawks and did so successfully. A 6-0 run tied the score at 105 with just over five minutes to go. But the fourth-quarter struggles hampered the squad once again. Indiana (26-30) was outscored 24-12 during crunch time and fell to the hosts, 129-117. We were fighting a lot of things, coach Nate Bjorkgren said postgame. It just kind of felt like an uphill battle throughout. Their main guys hurt us.
Five Pacers players finished the afternoon in double figures, with Malcolm Brogdon leading the way with 29 points on 11-of-18 shooting. Domantas Sabonis notched a double-double, recording 18 points and 15 rebounds, and T.J. McConnell had a team-high 18 off the bench.
