Keifer Sykes and Chris Duarte both have 5.
Bismack Biyombo leads Phoenix with 6.
Indiana playing inspired yet again, and it’s been really encouraging to see the young guys play so well. Isaiah Jackson’s athleticism is off the charts! – 9:38 PM

I wrote sales, I meant sails.
So let’s try it again.
Donovan Mitchell not playing in either Golden State or Phoenix takes quite a bit of wind out of the sails of those games.
Godspeed. ⛵️ – 9:36 PM

Tonight the Pacers play in Phoenix, where T.J. Warren was drafted, played five seasons and signed an extension.
But he hasn’t played in 389 days and has missed 63% of games since being dealt to Indiana.
The latest on rehab and video of him working out:
