Washington takes on Indiana, seeks to end 3-game skid

Both teams rank near the Eastern Conference bottom as Washington seeks to end a three-game losing streak while allowing 123.1 points per game, 10.9 points more than opponents.

  • On Thursday at 7 p.m. EST the Washington Wizards host the Indiana Pacers in Washington for their third meeting this season as Washington seeks to stop a three-game skid.
  • Slow defensive form, shown by opponents averaging over 120 PPG, helps explain the matchup context, with Washington allowing 123.1 points and being outscored by 10.9 points per game.
  • The Pacers average 116.6 points with Andrew Nembhard at 17.4 points and 7.5 assists, while the Wizards shoot 45.6% and Indiana posts 48.50% team shooting.
  • With several players sidelined, both coaches must adjust rotations and matchups as Indiana's 6-5 record in close games highlights late execution's importance.
  • After Washington's 108-89 Dec. 14 win, the teams meet for a third time Thursday, with the Wizards 9-23 and the Pacers 11-26 against Eastern Conference opponents.
