HOUSTON (AP) – Caris LeVert added 27 points, Domantas Sabonis added 22 and Malcolm Brogdon fell close to a triple-double for the Indiana Pacers, who beat the Houston Rockets 132-124 on Wednesday night.
In January, LeVert was involved in the colossal trade that sent James Harden from Houston to Brooklyn and Victor Oladipo from Indiana to the Rockets. Oladipo’s hardships during his brief stint in Houston contrasted with LeVert’s strong performance with the Pacers.
