Wizards vs. Pacers: Game thread, lineups, odds, TV info and more

The Pacers return home to play the Wizards at Bankers Life Fieldhouse on the front-end of back-to-back games.

This will be the first of four meetings between the two teams this season. Neither team is real happy with their start to the season, but the Wiz have gained some positive traction of late, winning their last three and five of their last six games. This includes a solid, 117-110 over the Clippers on Sunday night, so the schedule certainly sets up in the Pacers' favor.

The Pacers will continue to play without Monta Ellis and Rodney Stuckey, while the Wiz won't have Ian Mahinmi (knee) and Kelly Oubre, Jr. (concussion).
