Pacers Topple Grizzlies

Caris LeVert scored 34 points, Malcolm Brogdon and Domantas Sabonis fell just short of triple-doubles and the Indiana Pacers held on for a 132-125 victory over the Memphis Grizzlies on Sunday night.

 

Brogdon had 29 points, matched his season-high with 11 assists and had nine rebounds. Sabonis finished with 18 points, 15 rebounds and nine assists, part of the Pacers grabbing a season-high 53 rebounds en route to their third straight victory.

 

Memphis center Jonas Valanciunas matched his career-high with 34 points and his season-high with 22 rebounds. Valanciunas had 16 points and 12 rebounds to lead the Memphis second-half rally.

 

Ja Morant added 23 points for Memphis.

 

Memphis got within a single point twice in the final 1:46 but could never overtake the Pacers in the closing minutes. Holding onto leads down the stretch has been a change for Indiana in recent games.

 

The Pacers have their first three-game winning streak since starting 3-0. They host the Los Angeles Clippers on Tuesday night.
