Tyrese Haliburton and the Indiana Pacers (23-45) will take on Trae Young and the Atlanta Hawks (32-34) in part of the NBA Sunday slate.
Indiana pulled off a 119-108 win over the heavily short-handed San Antonio Spurs in their previous outing. Tyrese Haliburton led the way with 19 points, 10 assists, and three steals with the team as a whole shooting 14-36 (38.9 percent) from beyond the arc.
Largely, it has been a struggle for the Pacers to win games since moving Domantas Sabonis and Caris LeVert at the NBA trade deadline. Well, that was true prior to those moves, too, however.
It has been an underwhelming season for the Atlanta Hawks after managing to make a run to the Eastern Conference Finals. They are seeking to maximize their outlook for the play-in tournament.
