NBA

Pacers-Hawks

Indy Star

The Pacers are 0-3 this season against the Hawks, who have the third-worst record in the Eastern Conference. A loss tonight would make the Pacers the only team Atlanta will sweep this season.

Mavericks-Cavaliers

Cleveland Plain Dealer

The Cavaliers (41-29) have not lost since spitting up a 53-34 halftime lead at American Airlines Arena, winning five straight to set up tonight’s rematch against the Mavericks (54-16) at The Q. The third quarter in Dallas was the worst of the season and arguably one of the worst in the 36-year history of the Cleveland franchise. In being outscored, 27-8, the Cavaliers shot 19 percent (3-of-16) from the field.

Celtics-Knicks

Boston Globe

The Knicks are 4-12 since acquiring Francis from Orlando Feb. 22 and have lost their last five.  New York’s last victory came against Eastern Conference-leading Detroit March 17.

Grizzlies-Nets

Sports Ticker

The hottest team in the NBA, the Nets have won nine in a row, with the last two among their best victories all season. They went on the road to knock off Eastern Conference-leading Detroit on Sunday before dominating Pacific Division-leading Phoenix on Monday. The Grizzlies carried a seven-game winning streak into a 98-97 loss to Seattle on Tuesday.
