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

The Pacers face the Magic and former coach Frank Vogel for the second time this season at the Fieldhouse on Sunday evening.

The Pacers continue a favorable stretch of games on Sunday when they host the Orlando Magic led by Frank Vogel at the Fieldhouse.

This will be the second game of a stretch that has the Pacers playing four of five games at home with a road game at Detroit sandwiched between the home dates. After taking care of business against Chicago on Friday the Pacers hope to continue having fun against a tough matchup in the Magic.

With a large front court and size to spare coming off the bench, the Pacers will have to have a quality shooting night and try to keep Orlando on the run. In their last meeting, the Pacers did just that winning 88-69. But the circumstances of that game had a rested Pacers team facing the Magic the night after a hard-fought win in Oklahoma City. Vogel will have his team ready this time around as they continue trending in a positive direction after playing .500 ball in December.

The Pacers will be without Rodney Stucky and have Monta Ellis listed as questionable after he tweaked an ankle.
