Shawn Long double-doubles as 76ers fall to Pacers
Philadelphia 76ers power forward Shawn Long played 23 minutes off the bench on Sunday, racking up 15 points, 10 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 steal as the Sixers fell to the Indiana Pacers 107-94.

That was Long's first time grabbing double-digit rebounds through his 10 NBA games, while it was also his second-highest point total. He has played a fairly big role with Jahlil Okafor (knee) out over the last two games, averaging 16.5 points, 8.5 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 1.5 steals in 21.3 minutes per outing.
Long finished 4th among Sixers players with a 3.3 nERD in Sunday's loss, per numberFire Live. His 0.9 nERD on the season is good for 2nd on the team and 105th in the NBA.
