The Indiana Pacers (34 - 30) held off the San Antonio Spurs (53 - 10) for the victory Monday night at Bankers Life Fieldhouse, 99 - 91. The Spurs jumped out to a 40 lead, but the Pacers responded with a 14 - 4 run and led for the entirety of the game's final 45 minutes. The Spurs trailed by 11 heading into the fourth quarter and managed to make it close, as a LaMarcus Aldridge inside bucket with 1:55 to go pulled the Spurs within three at 87 - 90. But Indiana shot 5 - 5 from the line and 2 - 3 from the floor down the stretch and managed to close the game. Monta Ellis led all scorers with 26 points as part of an extremely efficient offensive night, as he shot 8 - 13 from the floor, 2 - 4 from three and a perfect 8 - 8 from the free throw line. Paul George added 23 points (7 - 20 FG, 2 - 5 3PT, 7 - 7 FT) and Rodney Stuckey added 12 (3 - 7 FG, 1 - 1 3PT, 5 - 5 FT) in just 19 minutes. Indiana shot a brutal 40 percent on two - point shots but made up for it with a 7 - 16 (44 percent) performance from downtown and a brilliant 28 - 30 (93 percent) shooting night at the free throw line. LaMarcus Aldridge managed a double - double with 23 points (9 - 20 FG, 5 - 5 FT) and 12 rebounds and Kawhi Leonard tied him for the team lead with 23 points of his own (9 - 23 FG, 1 - 7 3PT, 4 - 6 FT). Patty Mills was the only other player in double figures with 17 points (6 - 13 FG, 3 - 10 3PT). But the Spurs could n't find their shot as a team, as David West (2 - 3 FG) was the only Spur to shoot 50 percent or better and te team finished at just 35 percent from the floor and a horrific 4 - 28 (14 percent) from three. The Spurs continue their road trip Tuesday against the Timberwolves. The Pacers have four days off before they head on the road for a Saturday matchup against the Mavericks.
