Pacers beat Pelicans in George Hill's return

Pacers point guard George Hill made his season debut after missing the first 28 games with a left knee contusion and subsequent quadriceps tear.

As far as a "hero's" homecoming, it could not have gone better for Hill and the Indiana Pacers during the 96-84 win over the New Orleans Pelicans.

Though he described feeling "tired" after the game, Hill performed well in his first game in nearly two months with 15 points on 5-of-8 shooting in 20 minutes.
