Pacers Play With Just Six Players
The Pacers had only six players available Monday and still pushed the Hawks in a 108-104 loss. Kelly Oubre Jr. was a late knee scratch, joining 10 other Indiana players on the sideline. According to ESPN's Bobby Marks and Matt Williams, the situation was the franchise's thinnest roster since 1948. Every available Pacer scored at least 12 points. Jay Huff led Indiana with 22, while Jalen Slawson, Jarace Walker, Quenton Jackson, Braden Smith and Kobe Brown carried the rest of the load. Indiana heads to Memphis on Wednesday, and getting even a few bodies back would change everything.
🧙♂️ Merlin’s Prediction
The Pacers will have more than six players active against the Grizzlies, but Jay Huff keeps a rotation spot this month.
