What to Know
The Pacers will be playing the full four quarters on Thursday, but they’re expected to have things wrapped up well before that. They will take on the Detroit Pistons at 7:00 p.m. ET at Gainbridge Fieldhouse after having had a few days off. The Pistons took a loss in their last matchup and will be looking to turn the tables on the Pacers, who come in off a win.
The oddsmakers set the bar high, but the Pacers and the Raptors didn’t disappoint and broke past the 245.5 point over/under last Wednesday. Indiana had just enough and edged the Raptors out 127-125. Winning is a bit easier when you nail 11 more threes than your opponent, as the Pacers did.
The Pacers’ success was the result of a balanced attack that saw several players step up, but Tyrese Haliburton led the charge by shooting 5-for-9 from long range and dropping a double-double on 21 points and 12 assists. Haliburton didn’t help the Pacers’ cause all that much against the Hornets last Monday but the same can’t be said for this game. The team also got some help courtesy of Pascal Siakam, who scored 23 points along with seven assists and five rebounds.
Meanwhile, the Pistons’ recent rough patch got a bit rougher last Wednesday after their third straight defeat. The match between them and Phoenix wasn’t a total blowout, but with Detroit falling 116-100 on the road it was darn close to turning into one. The defeat unfortunately continues a disappointing trend for the Pistons in their matchups with the Suns: they’ve now lost seven in a row.
Indiana’s victory bumped their record up to 31-25. As for Detroit, they have been struggling recently as they’ve lost six of their last eight games, which is in line with their 8-46 record this season.
The Pacers were able to grind out a solid win over the Pistons in their previous meeting back in December of 2023, winning 131-123. Will the Pacers repeat their success, or do the Pistons have a better game plan this time around? We’ll find out soon enough.

Heavy rain soaks central Indiana, but drought relief uneven across the state
Central Indiana has seen a very wet start to March, with several rounds of rain and storms moving through the region over the past few days. In fact, the city of Indianapolis has already received more rain in the first four days of the month than it typically gets during the entire month of March.
So far this month, Indianapolis has recorded 3.90 inches of rainfall, which already exceeds the normal March monthly average of 3.79 inches. Much of that rain came during a widespread soaking on Tuesday, when a strong system pushed steady showers and thunderstorms across the state.
Some of the highest totals over the past three days have been recorded across central Indiana. Rain gauges show 5.86 inches in Marion County, 5.02 inches in Morgan County, 4.97 inches in Hancock County, 4.95 inches in Shelby County, 4.57 inches in Johnson County, and 4.26 inches in Hendricks County. These totals represent a significant amount of rainfall in a short period of time and have left many areas with saturated ground and standing water in low spots.
Despite the widespread rainfall, the impact on drought conditions has been somewhat uneven across the state. According to the latest drought monitor, the areas that received the heaviest rain over the past few days are largely the same areas that were already in relatively good shape in terms of moisture levels. Meanwhile, parts of northern Indiana that have been dealing with more persistent dryness have seen much lighter totals.
Cities such as Kokomo, Lafayette, and Muncie have generally picked up less rain compared to areas farther south. Forecast models suggest that pattern may continue over the next several days.
Additional rainfall is expected through Thursday, with another round possible around midday Saturday. Current projections show the best chance for another inch or more of rain focusing once again across the southern half of the state, while northern Indiana may see lower totals.
That means while the recent rain has certainly helped improve soil moisture in many areas, it may not fully address the lingering dryness farther north. For now, the pattern remains active, and Hoosiers should expect more wet weather before the system finally begins to move out later this weekend.

Watch Indiana basketball’s Lamar Wilkerson give his mom a Cadillac
Indiana basketball sharpshooter Lamar Wilkerson is known for his generosity.
Upon joining the Hoosiers, he gave a tidy sum of his NIL earnings to his previous program, Sam Houston State.
“I was blessed to be able go from that, from not having a lot, to being here, having a lot more than I even knew what to do with,” Wilkerson said at the time. “I just thought, I can give them this.”
He upped the ante on IU’s Senior Night, giving his mother a Cadillac after the Hoosiers throttled Minnesota.
You could imagine her reaction.

Indiana vs. Minnesota predictions tonight, March 4
- Zach Osterman, IndyStar: Indiana 75-69
- “Indiana is on the ropes. Minnesota has nothing to lose. Gophers already beat IU once this year. So picking Minnesota here is going to be trendy. Too trendy. The Ohio State game is tougher to forecast, but the Hoosiers win here.”
- Michael Niziolek, Herald-Times: Indiana 78-70
- “Can Minnesota spoil IU’s Senior Night? The Gophers upended Indiana in Darian DeVries’ Big Ten debut earlier this season and have been a tough out in conference play. They are just 7-11, but six of those losses are by single digits and two of those came in overtime. The Hoosiers need to do a better job of locking down the perimeter while getting a more balanced scoring effort. Indiana should be able to pull this one out and keep its NCAA Tournament chances alive for another night.”
