The Indiana Pacers have been a tremendous story to start the season, as they are off to an 8-5 start, just a half-game back of first in the East, thanks to some sensational two-way play.

On offense, it’s All-Star Domantas Sabonis and Malcolm Brogdon who lead the charge, averaging 21.7 and 22.2 points per game respectively, both shooting it with great efficiency to lead the Pacers. Victor Oladipo was their third 20 point per game scorer, but he was dealt to the Rockets in the four-team James Harden deal to net Indiana Caris LeVert, who is currently out indefinitely due to a mass discovered on his kidney in a team physical.
