Indianapolis’ victory was overshadowed by an injury sustained by one of the club’s leaders, Domantas Sabonis. At the end of the first quarter, the Lithuanian suffered a strong impact on the road and did not appear in the square.
X-rays show Domas was not seriously injured, but the Pacers will only reveal more information about the skyscraper’s condition after Tuesday’s MRI.
X-rays on the left knee of Pacers All-Star Domantas Sabonis did not reveal structural damage, the source told ESPN. An MRI is scheduled for Tuesday morning. Sabonis left the game after hitting his knee against the Raptors tonight.

In 11 minutes played, Sabas managed to score with two successful triples and scored 11 points (1/3 double, 2/2 trit., 3/4 penalty), 3 rebounds, 2 assists, two errors and a personal foul.
Lithuania’s loss in the Indiana team’s attack was offset by Malcolmas Brogdon, who played the most productive game of the season. The defender, who was extremely pale in the first game, this time scored as many as 36 points.
The Pacers’ reserve basketball players also contributed to the victory. Coming off the bench, the team members achieved a new best result of the season with 54 points, and the most important contributor was Jeremy Lambas, who scored 22 points in the fourth game of the season after a serious injury.
The Indianapolis team has suffered three losses in the last four games leading up to this game. At the Eastern Conference tournament table, the Pacers share 3-5 seats with the Boston Celtics and Brooklyn Nets.
The hosts, who played without Sabonis for three-quarters of the match, also played the match without winger TJ Warren and Caris LeVert, who moved to Indianapolis after four club exchanges.
“Markers”: Malcolm Brogdon 36 (7/12 double, 3/5 trit., 13/14 penalty, 7 rebounds, 9 res.), Jeremy Lamb 22, Myles Turner 21 (10 rebs, 3 blk.), Domantas Sabonis 11 , Goga Bitadze and Aaron Holiday 10 points each.
“Raptors”: Fredas VanVleetas 25 (6 rez. Lost), Normanas Powellas 24, Kyle’as Lowry 12 (1/6 dvit., 1/5 trit., 7/7 baud.), OG Anunoby 10 taškų.
The next game will be played by the Indiana team in Charlotte, where they will face the local Hornets club from Wednesday to Thursday nights. The Pacers will play two games in a row with North Carolina state representatives in their arena.
