With his first three-pointer of the evening, Kevin Huerter has extended his made triples streak to 18 straight games – the third-longest streak of his career. – 7:14 PM
James Boyd @RomeovilleKid
Tyrese Haliburton with two careless turnovers early. That last one led to an and-1 layup by Trae Young, #Pacers trail 11-5. – 7:14 PM

Oshae Brissett doing Oshae Brissett things with a putback dunk to start. Trae Young answers with a 3. #Pacers7:12 PM

Unbelievably, this has happened twice in OKC in the last two seasons. There was the orange/red debacle here last season when the Hawks were in town. – 7:12 PM

Hey Folks, maybe don’t have both teams wear white. Yet another uniform malfunction dating back to last year with Atlanta and OKC. – 7:11 PM

Duarte, who scored 15pts in 34mins last night, ruled out in Atlanta — along with Bitadze, Stephenson and regulars.
So, the Pacers have 8 available players. Sykes, Washington Jr, Smith off bench.
Haliburton, Hield, Brissett, Taylor (who didn’t play last night) and Jackson start. – 6:39 PM

The #Pacers are on a very unique back-to-back. Lost an hour because of the time change from CT to ET going from San Antonio to Atlanta and then lost another hour because of daylight savings.
Personally, I’m feeling it a bit. But hey, this is the NBA!

Skills and drills with Lance Stephenson and assistant Jannero Pargo. Stephenson is missing his fourth straight game due to a left ankle sprain, but this is a good sign. #Pacers pic.twitter.com/EtM6UmyrAh6:20 PM

Bogdan Bogdanovic has connected on at least one three-pointer in a career-high 28 straight games. His 28 consecutive games with at least one triple is tied with Mookie Blaylock for the sixth-longest such streak in franchise history. – 6:18 PM
Sean Grande @SeanGrandePBP

It’s the Celtics’ first such loss since January 28th in Atlanta. – 6:06 PM

Awesome sequence for Nic Claxton. Picks up Barrett on the perimeter and forces a miss. Hits a tough jump hook over Robinson. Then comes up with a steal on the next possession. He did a good job earlier in the year checking Trae, and Luka. Solid effort on Embiid last game. – 1:52 PM

Westbrook became the fourth player in NBA history to reach 100 career triple-doubles, joining Oscar Robertson, Magic Johnson, and Jason Kidd. pic.twitter.com/ra65eqlXvJ1:01 PM
