The Indiana Pacers had one of the most unlikely wins of the season on Monday night. They took on the Minnesota Timberwolves on the road without a ton of players.

Four of the five starters were out for the game. Only Andrew Nembhard was in the lineup, and he was ejected after just 19 minutes of playing time after picking up two technical fouls.

Despite that, the Pacers still took down the Timberwolves in overtime, winning the game 132-130. Despite not having Tyrese Haliburton run the offense, they were able to win the game.

Haliburton is on the injury report again ahead of their matchup with the Mavericks. He was listed as questionable but has been downgraded to out.

The good news for the Pacers is that they will have both Myles Turner and Aaron Nesmith back for this game. It's good to see the Pacers get a little healthier.

Dallas is one of the most injured teams in the NBA. Despite the fact that they hold the tenth spot in the Western Conference standings right now, there isn't much hope that they can hold on to that spot with all of the injuries they have.
