It was actually more of a label: Casual.

The Pacers tip of postseason play for the NBA when they face the Hornets in a do-or-die play-in game on Tuesday night at BLF.
In the midst of prepping to expand their season for at least one more game, the Pacers took yet another hit with the news that Caris LeVert will not play due to COVID protocols. The questionable status of Domantas Sabonis and Malcolm Brogdon among others may make the hour leading up to tip time more exciting than the game.
