5 years agoIndiana Pacers shooting guard/small forward Jeremy Lamb paced his squad with 20 points during Friday’s overtime win against the Atlanta Hawks. The showing marked his third 20-point performance of the season and first since Nov. 1. Having seen his minutes increase in each showing since his return from a seven-game absence, Lamb saw a season-high 40 minutes Friday, in which he added three rebounds and two assists. Moving forward, Lamb appears to be Indiana’s No. 1 scoring threat and could be in line for a favorable matchup Saturday versus Philadelphia as top wing defender Josh Richardson has his status up in the air for the contest. It will be Lamb’s first time suiting up for a back-to-back this season.--Jesse Borek
