The Pacers are still undermanned because of injuries but continue winning as they average 112.9 points per game in their last seven games.
Domantas Sabonis led six in double figures with 21 points and 16 rebounds in the Pacers’ third consecutive road victory Saturday at Amway Center.
Nate McMillan has found ways to use Aaron Holiday and T.J. McConnell, even together, but tough decisions loom when the roster gets healthy

The Pacers haven’t always fielded the most creative lineups under Nate McMillan but the personnel in recent years hasn’t been this versatile.

The Pacers led by 19 points in the first game of a back-to-back and had to go to overtime where they fell as two frontcourt players fouled out.
