Andrew Nembhard scores 25 points as Indiana Pacers get past Toronto Raptors 118-114
Pascal Siakam led all scorers with 31 points but the Toronto Raptors still fell to the Indiana Pacers 118-114 on Wednesday.
Andrew Nembhard of nearby Aurora, Ont., had a double-double for Indiana with 25 points and 10 assists. Siakam sank a baby hook with 1.4 seconds left in the half to cut Indiana’s lead to 58-52. It was the closest Toronto had been since late in the first quarter as the Pacers led by as much as 13 points in the second.
The Pacers pushed back, though, with a Nembhard field goal giving them an 83-78 lead headed into the final quarter. It was his 20th point of the night. Siakam hit a free throw and then a jumper from under the rim to cut that lead to two. Mathurin followed that with two free throws of his own and VanVleet answered with a pair.
