Tyrese Haliburton, limited due to a leg injury, scored four points, going 0-for-6, including 0-for-4 from deep. Pascal Siakam took up some of the scoring slack, delivering 28 points with six rebounds and five assists. The Pacers will be hoping the extra rest day will help Haliburton for the win-or-go-home Game 6 showdown in Indiana.
