Pacers Host Spurs Looking To End Two-Game Skid
The Indiana Pacers will host the San Antonio Spurs at Bankers Life Fieldhouse on Monday evening.

The Pacers (26-30) are coming off another loss Sunday, as they found themselves dropping their contest against the Hawks by a 129-117 score. Malcolm Brogdon had 29 points and eight assists to pace Indiana, and he also grabbed three rebounds. Domantas Sabonis only had 18 points, but he stuffed the stat sheet by also adding 14 rebounds, five assists and two steals. Caris LeVert had 11 points with three assists, two rebounds and two steals. T.J. McConnell had 18 points and seven assists off the bench. Indiana has gone 2-4 in their last six games and have dropped three of their last four games, so they're clearly trending in the wrong direction with only a few weeks left in the regular season. To make things even more complicated, the Pacers have to end their woes in a venue where they've gone 9-16 this season -- they've been one of the few teams that have performed better on the road than at home.

The Spurs (27-28) are coming off a surprising 111-85 win over the Phoenix Suns the last time out and that victory snapped their two-game losing streak while giving them a 3-2 record over their last five contests. Keldon Johnson paced the Spurs after scoring 17 points on 7-of-11 from the field. Dejounte Murray collected 14 points, seven rebounds and three assists. Devin Eubanks generated 13 points, 13 rebounds, two assists and two steals. Derrick White had 12 points, two rebounds and six assists. Rudy Gay led the bench with 19 points and five rebounds. San Antonio has gone 3-7 in their last 10 games but, since their three wins have come recently, they're clearly leaving their season-long five-game losing streak in the rear view while keeping their play-in chances intact. San Antonio has also posted a 15-10 record on the road, so they might feel more comfortable playing in this venue, especially considering the Pacers' woes at home.
