Player grades for the Indiana Pacers starters against the Jazz

Myles Turner: A-

The best defender in the matchup prevailed. Despite finishing with a modest 13 points, Myles Turner corralled nine boards and sunk three big triples in the third quarter as the Indiana Pacers never looked back in the second half. His sweet block on Gobert was the ultimate icing on the cake.

Domantas Sabonis: C+

Domas scored a season-low six points, failing to catch any semblance of rhythm against the reigning DPOY, shooting just two out of 10 from the floor. Even when guarded by smaller players, he failed to capitalize once more, hardly making an impact on offense aside from his five dimes. Still, like the rest of the team, he played good defense.

Chris Duarte: B-

The rookie continued to struggle in the road trip, finishing with just 11 markers on inefficient shooting overall. Aside from his crucial silencer to put the Jazz away for good, Duarte had a subpar performance.

Justin Holiday: B-

Holiday has never been the numbers guy, but his three-point shooting was marginal in this game. His defense on Bojan Bogdanovic, however, deserves a lot of credit, holding the Croatian to just eight points.
