The Indiana Pacers will be waking up in the middle of the night on Saturday with nightmares of Kemba Walker's dribble penetration.
Walker finished Friday with his first double-double of the season, scoring 20 points and dishing out 10 assists, as the Charlotte Hornets escaped Bankers Life Fieldhouse with a close 96-95 win over the Pacers.
His most pivotal bucket of the game came during the dying moments of the fourth quarter, cutting through two Indiana defenders and finishing with a layup over All-Star forward Paul George to give Charlotte the lead and eventual victory.
The Hornets improve to 30-27 on the season, having won six of their last seven games.
