Quietly the Indiana Pacers sit in fifth place in the Eastern Conference. After a split in Paris in two games with the Spurs over the weekend, Indiana takes the court against a competitive Pistons’ team. That said, Detroit takes the court having lost their last two games. Monday they lost to the Cavaliers, 110-91.

The Indiana Pacers are back home when the Detroit Pistons visit. Tempers flared just a little when these teams met two weeks ago.

Detroit blew out Indiana in their last meeting at Gainbridge Fieldhouse but failed to cover twice against the Pacers at home. The Stones have also failed to defend Pacers guard Bennedict Mathurin effectively.
