Indiana Pacers 2023-24 Schedule: Full dates, opponents announced
The Indiana Pacers 2023-24 schedule is official. The NBA announced the slate for each of its 30 teams on Thursday.
Only 80 games can be scheduled for each team, Pacers included, so far. The other two will be scheduled once the bracket for the In-Season tournament is known during the campaign. Indiana's group stage games for the regular season were revealed by the league earlier this week.
The Pacers open the 2023-24 slate with a home game against the Washington Wizards on October 25. The full schedule can be found on the Pacers website here as well as embedded below.
Indiana's preseason schedule is here.
There are many key notes to know about the Pacers schedule, and Positive Residual tracked many of them.
- There are 13 back-to-backs on the Pacers schedule. That is one fewer than the team had last season and is tied for the fewest in the league.
- Indiana will travel 33,736 miles as a part of their schedule. That is the fewest in the league and an advantage of playing in the Midwest near other NBA markets.
- The Pacers longest road trip is six games. It starts on January 12 in Atlanta and spans until January 21 in Phoenix.
- The Pacers have a rest advantage eight times and a rest disadvantage nine times, and their strength of schedule (based on a variety of factors tracked by Positive Residual) is the 10th easiest in the league at .509.
The blue and gold will play on national TV one time this season on January 30. They will battle the Celtics in Boston on TNT.
