Every player on the roster contributed in terms of buckets, led by Brown's 22 off the bench. Reserves Rozier and Theis combined for 24 points while Gordon Hayward shot 5-of-7 from the field and chipped in with 14 points of his own.

Seven Celtics players ended up scoring in double digits. In contrast, O'Quinn and Evans were the only Pacers' reserves to score at least 10 points. Starters Bogdanovic and Collison could not even cross the double-digit barrier in a game where the Pacers could never lead the scoreline.
