The Pacers are taking advantage of an extra break in their schedule.

The recent four-day All-Star break allowed Frank Vogel to have three training camp-style practices during the three consecutive off days.

On Wednesday, the Pacers had an extended film session and individual drills.

The Pacers had an intense two-hour practice, followed by a scrimmage on Thursday.

On Friday, they began preparing for Saturday's game against the Hornets.

"It's been great, not to just get fresh legs but to also spend more time with guys one-on-one," Vogel said. "We've also been able to work on our offensive package."
