New Orleans star Anthony Davis took another frightening fall on Monday and the Pelicans succumbed 98-95 to the Indiana Pacers in Indianapolis.

The Pacers, humbled 140-112 by the Denver Nuggets in London on Thursday, got 19 points from Paul George ( left in picture ) and held on for the bounce-back victory that still had coach Nate McMillan wanting to see better.

“We had lots of lazy possessions and missed free throws down the stretch,” McMillan said. “We’ve got to be better.”

The Pelicans had three scoring chances that could have sent the game to overtime.AFP
