After Action Report
The Pacers snuck past the Hawks 114-113 in overtime. The Pacers got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. You could feel the revenge motivation from the Pacers; Pacers' outside barrage was a constant threat. Hawks' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.

- Hawks · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Pacers · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
