This is something I've had my eye on. I think with all the variation in the lineups early this season, we didn't get to see as much of this as we could have. If these two can get some extra mojo going on, I think it would help the team immensely.

Lance Stephenson didn’t exactly come charging out of the gate this season.

From the second game on, he found himself marred in a three-week long slump that caught the eye of attentive Pacers fans. It was confusing, where has “Good Lance” gone, they asked. Amid the confusion, theory began to develop: Maybe, just maybe Lance will start to shine again once Myles Turner returns to the starting lineup and Domantas Sabonis returns to the second unit. That was the hope at least.

The early returns are in. It has been three games since Turner and Sabonis have inhabited their expected roles, and if those early returns are correct, then they are looking good for Stephenson and the Pacers.

Good for Lance

But not so good for Sabonis if I'm honest

I mean, that was kinda obvious. We all know that Lance and Al cannot play together. They proved that in Charlotte. They just aren't a good fit.

Its not just Lance. Everyone on the Pacers plays better with Sabonis on the floor.
