Roy Hibbert collected 24 points, 10 rebounds and eight blocks as Indiana easily dispatched visiting Milwaukee to remain the NBA’s lone undefeated team.

Paul George added 22 points and Lance Stephenson scored 11 for the Pacers, who are the first team to start 9-0 since the 2002-03 Dallas Mavericks. Hibbert went 8-for-8 from the free-throw line to lead a 19-of-21 effort for Indiana from the stripe.

O.J. Mayo scored 20 points to lead Milwaukee, which has dropped four straight. Zaza Pachulia grabbed 11 rebounds but went 2-of-14 from the field while going up against Hibbert.

The Pacers took control with an 11-2 run in the first quarter and built up a 31-21 lead at the end of one. The Bucks did not fare much better in the second quarter and ended up shooting 30.2 percent in the first half to go into the break down 52-37.

Milwaukee scored the first nine points of the third quarter to chop it back to single digits but George, who was held to five points in the first half, scored on three straight possessions to put Indiana back in control. Hibbert and George scored all of the Pacers’ points during a 9-2 run to stretch the lead to 15 and Indiana was not threatened in the fourth.
