Matchup
The Pacers (28-31) will look for their third straight win on Sunday night in Orlando, when they face the Magic (18-41) on the second night of a back-to-back.
While Indiana has been significantly shorthanded over the past few games, missing all three of its centers due to injury, the Pacers nonetheless have handled their business over two rebuilding teams in Oklahoma City and Detroit. Their next opponent, Orlando, also matches that description.
Indiana got significant contributions from several players in Saturday s 115-109 win over the Pistons at Bankers Life Fieldhouse. The starting backcourt duo Malcolm Brogdon and Caris LeVert combined for 51 points, recent signee Oshae Brissett recorded a second straight double-double with 11 points and 11 rebounds, and Edmond Sumner broke out for 22 points while going 4-for-5 from 3-point range.
