Wizards, Pacers collide in DC

Basketball Betting Lines

12/12/2009 - (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Two last place teams square off in the nation's capital tonight, as the Washington Wizards host the Indiana Pacers at the Verizon Center.

The Wizards, who are last in the Southeast Division, have dropped three in a row and are coming off Thursday's 104-102 loss to the Boston Celtics. Gilbert Arenas finished with 25 points and eight assists for the Wizards, who got 17 points and eight rebounds from Brendan Haywood.

Andray Blatche had 17 points and a career-high three steals, while Antawn Jamison finished with 16 points and eight boards in defeat.

"We fought back and had opportunities," Wizards head coach Flip Saunders said.

Indiana, cellar dwellers in the Central, put the brakes on a six-game losing streak the last time out with 107-91 triumph versus the New Jersey Nets Friday from Conseco Fieldhouse.

Tyler Hansbrough scored a career-high 21 points and pulled down seven rebounds off the bench to lead the Pacers. Roy Hibbert had a career-high 20 points, nine rebounds and three blocks for Indiana, which received 15 points and 12 rebounds from Troy Murphy.

"I felt good and it felt good to get a win tonight. This win does not erase the losses that we had, but it sure helps out," Hansbrough said. "We showed up tonight, played hard and won."

Mike Dunleavy tallied 15 points, five rebounds, and four assists in the win.

Indiana defeated Washington, 102-86, on November 6 this season and has won two straight and three of the last four meetings.
