Jay Huff Rumors

The Indiana Pacers set a new franchise record with their 13th straight loss Tuesday, falling to the Cleveland Cavaliers 120-116. The Pacers led by as many as 9 points early on, but they couldn’t overcome the Cavaliers’ size, as illustrated by Cleveland’s outscoring Indiana 64-42 on points in the paint. Center Jay Huff scored a season-high 20 points and made 4 of 7 3-point attempts, but All-Star forward Pascal Siakam had a rough night offensively (9-of-23 shooting).

James Wiseman said he had spent the last three weeks in Irvine, Calif. working out and getting pickup opportunities to stay in shape. "He's been in California, working out," Pacers coach Rick Carlisle said. "He's been finding pickup games out there. We worked him out early this morning. He looks great. He's not in NBA game shape by any stretch, no one can be, but for somebody in his situation, he's got the best head start you can probably have." It's not clear exactly how much opportunity Wiseman will have. Jay Huff and Isaiah Jackson still occupy the top two spots on the Pacers' depth chart a center and Bradley will be listed as active.

Scott Agness: Pascal Siakam sinks a 14-footer over two defenders to give the Pacers a 103-101 win over the Bulls. And their first win streak of the season. He led all with 24/9, Jay Huff was great with 14/8/4b. Now a much-needed off day for the team after 4 games in 6 days this week.
