Pacers at 76ers picks and predictions
Prediction
76ers 117, Pacers 105
PASS.
There is minimal value on the Sixers (-275) to handle an ailing Pacers squad.
BET 76ERS -6.5 (-118).
The Pacers have fallen by at least 14 points in each of their last two losses. They have faced major struggles on the road this season, with a 2-17 road record, and have scored 101 or fewer points in 3 of their last 4 overall.
The Sixers have some questions on the injury report, but if they are at full strength on Monday, they will have a major advantage. They are 6-4 ATS over their last 10 games and easily covered in their most recent game in which they entered as a double-digit favorite.
BET UNDER 226.5 (-105).
The Pacers have hit the Under in 8 of their last 10 overall, including 6 of their last 7. They have scored 101 or fewer points in 3 of their last 4 games and have allowed 121 or fewer in each of their last 7.
The Sixers have hit the Under in 2 of their last 3. They have scored 115 or fewer in each of their last 5 while allowing 117 or fewer in 5 of their last 6.
