Pacers Defeat Wizards In Double Overtime

Last updated on Wednesday, April 15, 2015

(Indianapolis, IN) - The Pacers closed out their regular season home schedule in dramatic fashion with a 99-95 double overtime thriller against the Washington Wizards.

C.J. Miles led the Blue & Gold with 25 points while George Hill was one rebound short of a triple double as he scored 24 points, 10 assists and nine rebounds while also hitting the game winning shot.

After the game, Hill talked about the push for the postseason. "We're in survival mode, needing every win right now. A tip of the cap to the Wizards but this team just keeps fighting quarter after quarter."

The Pacers have now won six games in a row, lead Brooklyn by one game for the battle of the eighth seed and it all comes down to Wednesday night as the Pacers visit the Memphis Grizzlies and Brooklyn hosts the Orlando Magic. A Pacers win and they're in, if Indiana loses and Brooklyn wins then the Nets will make the playoffs as they own the head to head tiebreaker over the Pacers.

Pacers/Grizzlies tips off at 9:30pm.
