Pacers, Thunder Meet In Battle Of Struggling Teams
The Indiana Pacers will host the Oklahoma City Thunder at BankersLife FieldHouse on Wednesday evening.

The Pacers (26-31) have been one of the most disappointing teams in the Eastern Conference this season and sit five games below the .500 threshold -- though they're still alive in the race for a play-in berth. The Pacers are coming off a third straight defeat, this time against the San Antonio Spurs by a 109-94 score, and that means they've gone 1-4 in their last five contests. Malcolm Brogdon and Caris LeVert co-led the Pacers with 18 points apiece, with Brogdon adding six rebounds and five assists and LeVert posting four boards and two assists. Oshae Brissett compiled 13 points, six rebounds and one steal. T.J. McConnell provided eight points, five rebounds and four assists. Indiana has gone 5-5 in their last five outings and have been struggling at home as well, posting a 9-17 mark at BankersLife FieldHouse.

The Thunder (20-38) are in an even more complicated position than the Pacers, as they're quickly descending in the Western Conference standings and have lost their past 10 games. They're coming off a 119-107 loss against the Washington Wizards in a game where they were led by Darius Bazley and his 26 points, seven rebounds and three assists. Kenrich Williams amassed 15 points, seven rebounds and three assists. Theo Maledon had 14 points, seven rebounds and five assists. Tony Bradley led the bench with 16 points, three rebounds and two steals. Ty Jerome also had 11 points, five rebounds and three assists. The Thunder have posted an 11-18 away record, losing each of their last six contests on enemy territory. They're also on an 11-game losing run.
