The Indiana Pacers (43-30) and Oklahoma City Thunder (61-12) meet in a cross-conference matchup on Saturday (8 ET, League Pass). The Thunder take aim at a ninth straight win, while the Pacers look to create more separation in the Eastern Conference playoff picture.

NBA.com currently ranks third Wizards Alex Sarr in its Kia Rookie Ladder. Ascending the ranks after such a historically woeful team performance would be counterproductive, but his team-high 22 points do showcase the rookie's potential. Carlisle took note of the rookie's effort after the game.

The Pacers cruised to a 162-109 win over the Wizards on Thursday in what was a truly dominant outing. Their 162 points were the most scored by any team in the league so far this season, and set a new NBA franchise record for the most points scored in a single game. They made 27 3-pointers in the win, too, which was also a new team record.

Tyrese Haliburton scored 29 points, one of nine Indiana players in double figures as the Pacers set a franchise record for points in a game in a 162-109 rout of the Washington Wizards.

Hosting the Indiana Pacers Thursday, the Wizards scored a highly respectable 109 points. The only problem was their opponent scored 162. Washington lost every quarter by at least eight points in its most embarrassing loss of a miserable season.
