The Boston Celtics came up short against the Indiana Pacers Wednesday night, losing 117-112 at home. Though Boston teased a comeback in the second half, the Pacers were ultimately the better team from start to finish.
Boston’s Jayson Tatum played great, but it was Indiana’s Tyrese Haliburton who stole the show. Haliburton finished with 33 points and 8 assists on the night, decidedly dictating the flow of the game for much of the contest. Former Celtic Aaron Nesmith also had a nice night, turning in 15 points and 6 rebounds. Nine Pacers players scored 7 or more points overall.
