Pacers Struggle on the Road, Fall to Raptors

The Indiana Pacers’ road woes continued Tuesday night with a 122-111 loss to the Toronto Raptors. Despite 30 points from Tyrese Haliburton, the Pacers couldn’t overcome a career-high 35 points from Toronto’s Scottie Barnes, who added nine assists and six rebounds in a dominant performance.

Indiana’s turnovers proved costly, as the team committed 21, leading to 23 points for the Raptors. RJ Barrett added 29 points for Toronto, while Jakob Poeltl recorded a double-double with 17 points and 10 rebounds. The Pacers managed to cut the deficit to two in the fourth quarter, but a clutch three-pointer from Ochai Agbaji helped Toronto pull away.

The Pacers have now lost seven straight road games and will look to regroup tonight when they face the Brooklyn Nets.
