NBA India Games 2019: Indiana Pacers vs Sacramento Kings - 3 Talking points from Game 2

#3 Sacramento need to tighten up their core and spread the load, bright spots for Indiana all over

The Kings' offense was all over the place. Marvin Bagley III had a rather forgettable night of 5-of-12 shooting, including multiple sloppy plays beneath the rim. De'Aaron Fox's impact on the ball-game was uncharacteristically negligible as he finished with 10 points, having made just one field-goal throughout the night. Buddy Hield shot 3-of-9 from deep for 17 points but could not do enough to carry his side through for a win.

The Pacers shared the ball and spread the floor consistently, making it tedious for Sacramento to keep track of perimeter shooters. Moreover, another promising prospect emerged in the form of backup point guard Edmond Sumner, who contributed 10 points (on 5-of-7 shooting) including a runaway layup in less than four seconds to close the first half.

The Indiana bench combined for 91 points in Game 2 and carried their team to a convincing win, and at the same time opened up multiple avenues for Coach McMillan through the season.
