Golden State Warriors report for Friday's game vs. Indiana Pacers - San Jose Mercury News

WARRIORS VS. INDIANA

Tipoff: 7:30 p.m. at Oracle Arena

TV/Radio: CSNBA; 680

Pacers update: Indiana is coming off a 92-88 loss at Sacramento on Wednesday, in which it wasted a 16-point lead and scored just eight points in the fourth quarter. ... The Pacers (9-4) don't shoot the ball well, but they know how to defend. They're holding teams to 40.5 percent field-goal shooting, which led the NBA entering Thursday night.

Warriors update: To start a six-game homestand off on the right note, Golden State (5-9) must rebound better than in Wednesday's loss at New Jersey. The Warriors were beaten 45-25 on the boards. ... Monta Ellis (23.2 points per game) and David Lee (19.3) both rank in the top 12 in the NBA in scoring, but Lee is coming off a 12-point game against the Nets after scoring 20-plus in five straight.

Pacers injuries: F Jeff Pendergraph (concussion) and F Jeff Foster (back) are questionable.

Warriors injuries: PG Stephen Curry (sprained right ankle) is questionable; C Kwame Brown (torn chest muscle) is out.
