In the second game in as many days between the Sacramento Kings and the Indiana Pacers, the Pacers evened the series by winning 116-107. Sacramento led by eight after the first quarter, but the second quarter was the turning point for the Pacers. That was when they outscored Sacramento 31-18. Lawrence Funderburke's three-point play with three minutes left in the game cut the Pacers' lead to 106-103, but Indiana went on an 8-0 run to put the game away.
Reggie Miller scored 21 points, and Rik Smits had 20 in the Pacers' win Sunday night.
Funderburke came up big off the bench scoring 18 points and grabbing 7 rebounds, and Jason Williams played great again, scoring 25 points. Both Chris Webber and Corliss Williamson, who were both questionable, didn't play. Webber has a sore groin; Williamson has a sprained ankle, thankfully both are minor.
