What you need to know about the Pacers
On Monday, Indiana got maybe a little too into the holiday spirit, gifting the New Orleans Pelicans an easy 113-93 victory. Indiana was in a tough position by the half, with the score already sitting at 57-38. Shooting guard Bennedict Mathurin (15 points) and center Myles Turner (14 points) were the top scorers for the Pacers.
Guard Tyrese Haliburton had an off-game with just 12 points on 4 of 12 shooting. But overall, Haliburton has been one of the best point guards in the NBA, leading the league with 10.3 assists to go along with 20.4 points and 1.7 steals. Indiana is 12-6 when Haliburton scores at least 18 points but just 1-10 when he scores under 18 points.
What you need to know about the Hawks
Meanwhile, Atlanta took its game against the Detroit Pistons this past Friday by a conclusive 130-105 score. The score was close at the half, but the Hawks pulled away in the second half with 70 points. Point guard Trae Young did his thing and posted a double-double on 26 points and 13 assists.
Young and Dejounte Murray are combining to average over 48 points, 16 assists and eight rebounds per night. But Atlanta hasn't gotten what it's hoped for from John Collins, whose 11.8 points are his fewest since his rookie year. After missing eight games with an ankle injury, Collins has averaged just 8.0 points in his three games since returning. Clint Capela (calf) is out on Tuesday while De'Andre Hunter (ankle) is questionable.
