The Los Angeles Clippers defeated the Indiana Pacers 130–107 on March 4 at Intuit Dome, dominating a matchup that fell well short of the Vegas total of 230.5 points. Kawhi Leonard led the Clippers with 29 points, while Bennedict Mathurin added 23 for Indiana; Pascal Siakam matched Leonard's 29 points for the Pacers but received insufficient offensive support. Los Angeles shot 55.1% from the field and made 12 three-pointers, controlling the game through a dominant third quarter in which they outscored Indiana 39–26. The Clippers' defense was suffocating, holding the Pacers to 42.9% shooting and forcing 12 turnovers while recording 28 assists on their own 47 rebounds. Indiana's perimeter game faltered with only 10 threes made and just 2 steals, unable to generate the pace needed to compete. The Clippers' offensive rating of 123.8 paired with their defensive rating of 102.3 underscored a complete performance that moved them further up the Western Conference standings.
