INDIANAPOLIS, March 25 (UPI) -- Gerald Green's 19 points helped Indiana overcome the injury absences of some key players Monday and the Pacers logged a 100-94 victory over Atlanta.
Indiana was without David West (back), Lance Stephenson (right hip flexor) and George Hill (strained left groin), but used Green's output and a balanced attack to pull out the win.
