The Pacers, who have a 7-13 record, are showing the largest attendance growth at 15.7%, while the 76ers and Hawks are also up by double digits. Despite the attendance uptick, though, the 76ers are the lowest team in terms of drawing capacity crowds, as just less than 68% of the 20,318-seat Wachovia Center is filled per game.
