Victor Oladipo scored 25 points, Myles Turner added 22 and the Pacers had just enough energy to make two late charges in a 105-96 victory over the Charlotte Hornets.

 

Six players scored in double figures, including Thaddeus Young with 16 points and Darren Collison with 13. Domantas Sabonis had his 12th double-double this season with 11 points and 10 rebounds. Collison had six assists, backup point guard Cory Joseph added five and Lance Stephenson provided a late burst of energy as he wound up with 10 points.

 

Charlotte scored only 14 points over the final 10 minutes and 18 in the fourth quarter, losing its second in a row.

 

Kemba Walker led the Hornets with 23 points, making a trio of 3-pointers. Dwight Howard had 22 points and 11 rebounds but took only three shots in the second half. Nicolas Batum made five 3s and scored 22 points.

 

After Oladipo made a 19-footer with 9:50 to go, the Pacers didn't look back. Sabonis scored Indiana's next five points and when the 13-4 spurt ended with Sabonis' 20-footer, the Pacers led 94-86 with six minutes remaining.

 

Then Turner's 3 spurred a 7-0 run, giving the Pacers a 103-89 advantage with 2:46 left. Charlotte never recovered.

 

The Pacers can sweep Memphis for the first time since 2012-13 with a win at home Wednesday night.
