On March 11, the Indiana Pacers lost narrowly to the Sacramento Kings 109-114 on the road, suffering their 10th consecutive defeat.
With the loss, the Pacers have fallen to a league-worst record of 15 wins and 50 losses this season. Even if they win all their remaining games, Indiana would only finish at 32-50, still unable to catch the Charlotte Hornets, who currently hold the 10th spot in the Eastern Conference with 33 wins.
As a result, the Indiana Pacers — last season’s Eastern Conference champions — have officially become the first team in the NBA to be mathematically eliminated from playoff and Play-In Tournament contention this season.
