Indiana Pacers' Luis Scola -- We're Playing for Chris Copeland Tonight
Indiana Pacers' Luis Scola We're Playing for Chris Copeland Tonight
The Indiana Pacers are rallying around their injured player Chris Copeland ... with teammate Luis Scola telling TMZ Sports they're gonna try to get a "W" to honor him tonight.
The Pacers are in NYC to take on the NY Knicks at Madison Square Garden -- and before Scola hit the arena, he hit Starbucks for a quick pick-me-up ... where we asked about Copeland.
Scola says he hasn't spoken with Chris since he was stabbed outside a nightclub around 4AM -- but says the team is definitely thinking about him.
Copeland was hospitalized with injuries to his stomach and elbow -- and will most likely miss the rest of the season.
