What to Know
The Indiana Pacers haven’t won a matchup against the Phoenix Suns since March 13 of 2021, but they’ll be looking to end the drought Friday. They will face off against one another at 7 p.m. ET at Gainbridge Fieldhouse. The point spread is more or less neutral, so fans should expect a close contest.
The Pacers were within striking distance but couldn’t close the gap on Wednesday as they fell 116-111 to the Miami Heat. Despite the loss, Indiana got a solid performance out of small forward Buddy Hield, who shot 6-for-12 from beyond the arc and finished with 29 points and seven boards.
Meanwhile, Phoenix came up short against the Atlanta Hawks on Thursday, falling 116-107. A silver lining for the Suns was the play of small forward Josh Okogie, who had 25 points.
Both teams will surely be fighting tooth and nail to get back into the win column after losses this week. Allowing an average of 116.93 points per game, Indiana hasn’t exactly asserted themselves on the defensive end. We’ll see if they can patch up the holes in their defense before their upcoming game.
