The Indiana Pacers ( 23 - 19 ) defeated the Phoenix Suns ( 13 - 30 ) 97 - 94 on Tuesday night . In a game between two of the fastest - paced teams in the NBA , the offenses were downright ugly tonight . Indiana came into this game ticked off with their defensive form and it 's clear they were letting out their frustrations on this beaten up Suns team . The Pacers held the Suns to just 35 percent shooting and drew 22 turnovers in a dominant defensive performance . The NBA has become a three - point shooting league , but these teams set the league back a few years by combining to go 15 - for - 55 from long range in this game . The aggressive nature of Indiana can be emphasized by the fact that they recorded 16 steals in the victory . Indiana had lost four of their last five coming into this and a date with Phoenix is just what the doctor ordered . The Pacers did n't play pretty basketball , but they got back to their roots and dominated with their stifling defense . The defensive total actually would have looked better if the Pacers did n't allow 16 points in the final three minutes in a comeback effort . No player played spectacularly , but Paul George did put in a nice all - around game , as he tallied 19 points , eight rebounds , four assists and four steals in the win . Mighty Joe Young also gave the team a nice spark off the bench , as he finished with 11 points , three rebounds , five assists and two steals in just 19 minutes of action . Indiana will have to keep up this defensive form in their next game against the Golden State Warriors on Friday . This Suns team has fallen apart over the last two months and it 's quite clear that the offense is the main reason why . The amazing part about this game is that Phoenix shot 27 - for - 29 from the free - throw line and still barely cracked 90 points . That 's simply hard to do and it shows how inefficient they are playing right now . The one bright spot here was rookie Devin Booker , who scored a career - high 32 points in a shooting exhibition . Markieff Morris finally seemed to be turning things around over the last few games , but he left here in the first quarter with a shoulder injury . That 's the last thing this team needs , as the injuries are killing them right now . Brandon Knight really hurt his team tonight as well , as he went 2 - for - 9 from three - point range and committed a ghastly eight turnovers in the defeat . It does n't get much easier in their next game , as the Suns host the San Antonio Spurs on Thursday in what will likely be another lopsided result .
