Pacers Win With Late Game Push

Last updated on Friday, January 29, 2016

(INDIANAPOLIS, IN) - The Pacers ended their three-game losing streak with a 111-92 victory over the Atlanta Hawks.

Monta Ellis led all scorers with 25 points, six assists and five rebounds while Myles Turner scored 20 points of his own.

Indiana was red-hot from beyond the arc, hitting 60 percent (9 of 15), with Ellis leading the way with five 3-pointers.

The Blue & Gold, who have struggled to close out games all season, closed the game on a 23-2 run.

"We just imposed our will. We got tired of losing," coach Frank Vogel said. "We got stops. Guys made the necessary plays."

The Pacers hope to have found a winning formula that can carry over to Saturday's contest against the Denver Nuggets.
