Pacers 88, 76ers 69: Roy Hibbert collected 18 points and 14 rebounds, guiding Indiana to its third win in as many nights.
Paul George, David West and George Hill each scored 15 points for the Pacers, who successfully navigated through the NBA’s only back-to-back-to-back set this season with an unblemished mark.
Jrue Holiday scored 19 points and Arnett Moultrie and Lavoy Allen added 12 apiece as the 76ers had a three-game winning streak snapped. Philadelphia shot just 34.4 percent from the floor.
The Pacers turned a three-point halftime lead into a double-digit advantage in a matter of minutes to start the third quarter. Hibbert and George each scored four points and Hill nailed a 3-pointer during the 11-2 run that resulted in a 48-36 edge.
Philadelphia closed to within eight on Moultrie’s layup late in the quarter. Hibbert’s free throws later made it 76-62 with 4:53 remaining in the fourth as Indiana cruised to its season-best fifth straight win.
GAME NOTEBOOK: The 76ers played their first game without second-leading scorer Thaddeus Young, who will miss roughly three weeks with a left hamstring strain. … The 12 points were a career high for rookie Moultrie. … The Pacers conclude their long week – four games in five nights – against the Toronto Raptors on Friday.
