Injury-Riddled Pacers Face Winless Nets

The Indiana Pacers, on a three-game losing streak, host the winless Brooklyn Nets on Nov. 1 in the teams’ second meeting of the season. Indiana won their Oct. 25 matchup 136-109, but will be without several rotation players, including Tyrese Haliburton, Ivica Zubac and T.J. McConnell, leaving a larger role for its remaining players. The Nets will look to end their five-game skid and could make the game closer by exploiting their stronger three-point shooting. Indiana is favored, though both teams have struggled early in the season.
