The Indiana Pacers continue to surprise the NBA world with their impressive run through this year's playoffs. Upon the final day of the regular season, the Pacers found themselves in the No. 4 seed in the Eastern Conference playoff picture.

129 points: It's the third-most points scored in a playoff game by the Pacers in the NBA playoffs. They scored 130 vs. the Knicks last season and vs. Boston in 1991. The franchise record is 150 vs. the Oakland Oaks in 1969.

The Indiana Pacers are set to face off against the New York Knicks in the playoffs for the second consecutive year. This year's iteration is for even higher stakes: a trip to the NBA Finals.

The Cleveland Cavaliers are getting plenty of unanswered questions from fans. After an incredible high that saw them finish at the top of the Eastern Conference with their team-based approach, they were silenced by the Indiana Pacers in the second round of the 2025 playoffs.
