George Hill: Officially ruled out

Hill (illness) has officially been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the 76ers.

Analysis:

Conflicting reports surfaced over the previous few hours, with one suggesting that there was a chance Hill could play Wednesday night. However, that won't be the case, and the Pacers will likely go with Monta Ellis as their starting point guard Wednesday, just as they did in Monday's loss to Chicago. Indiana will also be without guard Rodney Stuckey (ankle) and big man Myles Turner (hand).
