Indiana Pacers v New York Knicks Game 4: Haliburton & Nesmith active, final injury report, official starters May 12
The Indiana Pacers host the New York Knicks for Game 4 of their 2024 second-round series on Sunday. It’s a massive game in the series — the Knicks can take a commanding 3-1 lead with a win while Indiana can put the pressure on New York and tie things up if they protect home court.
The Pacers won on Sunday, and star guard Tyrese Haliburton led the way. They cleaned up some defensive mistakes and were better on the glass. They’ll need to do that again tonight while maintaining pressure on Jalen Brunson.
Here are the official starting lineups and injury reports for the action.
