Pacers and Clippers Tangle Set for Interconference Clash
The Indiana Pacers take on the Los Angeles Clippers at Crypto.com Arena on Monday afternoon.

The Pacers (15-28) have had an alarmingly disappointing season, and they'll enter Monday's contest having lost three straight and nine of the last 10 overall. Their most recent stumble came Friday night, when they fell to the Phoenix Suns by a 112-94 score. Justin Holiday led the Pacers with 25 points, adding four assists, two rebounds, three blocks and two steals. Caris LeVert furnished 20 points, nine assists, five boards and one steal. Domantas Sabonis generated a 14-point, 14-rebound double-double that included six assists and one steal.

The Pacers will list Malcolm Brogdon (Achilles) and Jeremy Lamb (knee) as questionable for Monday's game. Myles Turner (foot) will be out.

The Clippers (21-23) have had their own share of struggles lately, as they'll enter Monday's game having lost two straight and five of the last seven overall. Their most recent defeat came at the hands of the San Antonio Spurs, which bested them by a 101-94 score on Saturday night. Amir Coffey led the way with 20 points, supplementing them with five rebounds, one assist, one steal and one block. Marcus Morris delivered 15 points, six boards, five assists and one steal. Nicolas Batum supplied 13 points, seven rebounds, one assist and one steal, while Serge Ibaka managed a 10-point, 10-rebound double-double off the bench.

The Clippers will list Luke Kennard (COVID-19 protocols) as doubtful and Justise Winslow (conditioning) as questionable for Monday's game. Paul George (elbow) will remain out.

Monday's contest marks the first of two meetings between the teams this season. The Clippers swept the two-game 2020-21 series from the Pacers.
