The 76ers led 26-18 after one and still led 51-47 at the half, before Siakam scored 12 points on 6-of-8 shooting in the third to send Indiana into the lead for good.

The Pacers outscored the 76ers by 16 points in the second half.

Takeaways

Pacers: Indiana moved back into a tie with the Bucks for the No. 4 seed in the Eastern Conference ahead of a trip to Milwaukee on Saturday for a rematch of the Pacers’ victory Tuesday on Haliburton’s four-point play with 3.4 seconds remaining.

76ers: Playing without Joel Embiid, Paul George and Tyrese Maxey, Philadelphia will take whatever healthy bodies it has on the road for the next six games.

Key moment

The Pacers opened the fourth quarter with a 12-2 run that turned a three-point game into a double-digit advantage. Siakam hit two baskets during the run, both on assists from Haliburton.

Key stat

The Pacers made up for 28.6% shooting from 3-point range by scoring 60 points in the paint.

Up next
