But after three property, with exceeding only more than 30 seconds in overtime, the box collapsed. The back-to-back turnover allowed pacers to shut down the difference, and left 10 seconds, Tieres Heliberton ran for a Go-Foreward paste, leading to Indiana to 119–118, with more than just one second left.
