A sizzling second half gives the Pacers a 139-123 victory without star point guard Tyrese Haliburton.
Any time Tyrese Haliburton misses time, Rick Carlisle notes that the silver lining is more work for Andrew Nembhard at point guard.
"The biggest key to the game was the adjustment that Nembhard made at halftime to really make an emphasis on attacking to the rim and getting to the basket," Pacers coach Rick Carlisle said."That set the tone." But on Thursday night he found his rhythm and found it early, knocking down a wide open 3 on his first shot of the game and using that confidence to keep rolling. He finished with 22 points on 8 of 11 shooting including 6 of 9 from 3-point range. It was the most 3-pointers Nesmith had made this season.
Getting the win, meant a lot for both men, but especially Nwora because he rarely got opportunities to play there.
