In a commanding performance, the Indiana Pacers defeated the Chicago Bulls 129-113, powered by Pascal Siakam's 26 points and Thomas Bryant's season-high 22 points. Tyrese Haliburton contributed with 16 points and 13 assists, leading the Pacers to their fourth consecutive win, each by at least 10 points. The Pacers' offensive efficiency shone as they capitalized on the Bulls' 14 first-half turnovers, while Indiana committed only four during the same period.
Despite Zach LaVine's impressive 31-point outing for Chicago and Coby White's 19 points, the Bulls struggled to keep pace with the Pacers’ fast tempo. The Pacers established an early lead, going up by 36-18 in the second quarter, and maintained control throughout the game, even without center Myles Turner, who missed the match due to illness.
