Who are Myles Turner and the Indiana Pacers facing next?
The Indiana Pacers will next compete against the New Orleans Pelicans (20-12) on Boxing Day. The Pacers are currently on a two-game winning streak with a 117-112 win over the Boston Celtics followed by a 111-108 win over the Miami Heat.
In their most recent game, the Pacers were led by point guard Tyrese Haliburton, who secured an impressive 43 points and seven assists.

Considering their hit-and-miss playing in recent weeks, coupled with the Pacers' impressive showings over the past couple of days, an upset could very well occur.
Should the Myles Turner extension talks go well, the Pacers ought to be that much more confident moving forward knowing one of their star players will be sticking with them for the long haul.
