After Action Report

In Indiana, the Pacers pulled away from the Wizards 111-98. Every possession went the Pacers way. Pacers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Pacers came in with something to prove after a loss. The Pacers locker room is humming, and it showed. Wizards' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Pacers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Pacers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Pacers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
