ANALYSIS: Charania added that should Indiana advance in the play-in tournament, LeVert will likely be out for multiple games. This is undoubtedly a tough blow for the Pacers as they enter as the ninth-seeded team. LeVert came over to Indiana in the James Harden blockbuster trade, and in 35 games has averaged 20.7 points, 4.9 assists and 4.6 rebounds per game. The Pacers and Hornets tip off at 6:30 p.m. ET.
