The Indiana Pacers, who have won four of their last five games and each of their last three, will go on the road to take on the Denver Nuggets. This is Indiana's last game against a Western Conference opponent this season. Furthermore, it is their final road game until their season finale against the Cleveland Cavaliers.
While the Pacers have won their last three games, the Nuggets are on the complete opposite side, having lost each of their last three games. Though the Pacers have the No. 4 seed in the East all but locked up, the Nuggets (who own the No. 4 seed in the West) are in a tight race as they are just one game ahead of the No. 8 seed Memphis Grizzlies.
Both teams met once so far this season on February 24 in a game that culminated in a nine-point victory for Denver. As the Nuggets aim to complete the season series sweep, the Pacers will look to extend their winning streak with only a few games left on the schedule.
Here is the full injury report for the Pacers and Nuggets.
