Pacers' Caris LeVert: Drops season-high 42 points

LeVert recorded a season-high 42 points (19-26 FG, 1-3 3PT, 3-3 FT) in Friday's 122-115 loss to the Bulls, along with five rebounds and eight assists across 41 minutes.

With the rest of the Pacers' regular starters sidelined, LeVert took his opportunity to shine and ran with it. He is averaging 21.8 points, 5.0 rebounds, 5.8 assists and 1.2 triples across 36.4 minutes in his previous five games. There are rumors about him being on the trading block, and he is certainly showcasing his capabilities. He will suit up against one of the teams reportedly pursuing him Saturday when the Pacers play the Cavaliers.
