After Action Report

In Indiana, the Pacers outlasted the Nuggets 109-90. Every possession went the Pacers way. Pacers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; second-chance points piled up for the Pacers. The Pacers locker room is humming, and it showed. The Pacers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Pacers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Pacers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Pacers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Nuggets · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Nuggets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
