Indiana, who fell to Oklahoma City in last season’s NBA Finals, continue to struggle with a stream of injuries in addition to the ruptured Achilles tendon suffered by Tyrese Haliburton in the championship series last June.
Haliburton is expected to miss the entire season, and the Pacers were also without injured Obi Toppin, Bennedict Mathurin, Quenton Jackson and Kam Jones as well as ailing Cody Martin.
Indiana have lost six straight since their lone win of the season on Nov. 1. At 1-11 they are tied for worst record in the league with the Washington Wizards.
