Overview
Indiana Pacers
Hoosier basketball, built for the big stage
The Pacers won three ABA championships before joining the NBA, and Reggie Miller’s teams carried Indiana to the 2000 Finals. Those eras connect the franchise to the state’s deep basketball roots and a succession of memorable postseason runs.
Pacers fans bring Hoosier pride to Indianapolis, where basketball is part of the state’s identity. The rivalry with New York is linked to iconic playoff duels, while Chicago and Cleveland add Central Division contests with regional stakes.
