Thursday, May 6, 2021 at 8:00 PM ET at Bankers Life Fieldhouse Matchup After falling to the Kings on Wednesday night, the Pacers (30-35) will look to bounce back on Thursday when they host the Atlanta Hawks (37-30) on the second night of a back-to-back. Indiana has now dropped four of its last five following a 104-93 loss to the Kings. While the defense surrendered 154 points in Monday's loss in Washington, it was the offense that faltered against Sacramento. The Pacers had a season-high 22 turnovers, which the Kings converted into 25 points. Though the Pacers are scuffling, they still remain in position to take part in the Play-In Tournament for the final two playoff spots in the Eastern Conference. The teams that finish the season in seventh through 10th place will participate in the Play-In and Indiana remains in ninth after Wednesday's games (a half-game ahead of 10th-place Washington, but 3.5 games clear of 11th-place Toronto).
