Pacers' Jeff Teague: Double-doubles in loss to Pelicans
Teague put up 21 points (7-18 FG, 0-6 3Pt, 7-9 FT), six rebounds, 10 assists and a block Thursday in a 95-102 loss to New Orleans.
Analysis:
Teague couldn't buy a three Thursday night, but he probed the defense well. This is Teague's fourth double-double in his last 10 games, and he's looking more comfortable facilitating for Indiana than he has all season. His shot, however, has fallen off a cliff. Opponents have always sagged off of Teague -- he's a career 44.6 percent shooter -- but his jumper has been especially atrocious this season. He missed every three he took this game, and each one seemed more open than the last.
