Player grades from the Pacers’ big comeback win over the Bulls

C+. Chris Duarte started finding his groove amid the Pacers’ losing streak, but he hit a small roadblock against the Bulls, going just 2-11 from the field. Still, his confidence is starting to return, and while bad shooting nights will still come from time-to-time, Duarte’s continued aggression will be key to Indiana’s success moving forward.. SF. Indiana Pacers. CHRIS DUARTE

Isaiah Jackson was Rick Carlisle’s third option off the bench to back up Myles Turner, and he did quite well in seven minutes, somehow swatting three shots.. C. Indiana Pacers. ISAIAH JACKSON. INC

INC. Matching up against Vucevic and Andre Drummond will always be tough for Jalen Smith, and he definitely looked the part. Smith has struggled as of late, especially on defense. Hopefully, his confidence returns as he remains a key rotation piece for the Pacers. PF. Indiana Pacers. JALEN SMITH

PG. Indiana Pacers. TREVELIN QUEEN. INC. Trevelin Queen seems like an inherently good defender, but the Pacers need more from him offensively especially if Nembhard is out for an extended time. Having to play McConnell 40 minutes nightly is not ideal.
