Pacers' Jeff Teague: Scores 17 in loss

Teague posted 17 points (7-12 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four assists, four rebounds and three steals across 35 minutes in Friday's 99-85 loss to the Bucks.

Analysis:

Teague coughed up the ball seven times on Friday, equaling his season-high single-game turnover total. He's also experiencing a bit of a dip in scoring, posting only 12 points per game in March as opposed to his current season average of 15.2 points per game. The Pacers are inextricably linked to the success of their floor general, and this Sunday will be a challenge for Teague as they face the Heat at home. In two games against Miami, he has shot only 32 percent from the floor and managed an average of only 13 points and 5.5 assists per game.
