Kings at Pacers picks and predictionsPrediction
Pacers 118, Kings 111
PASS.
There’s no great moneyline value. The Kings (+135) are worth a look as a road underdog, but given the predicted outcome, that’s one to avoid as well.
BET PACERS -3.5 (-110).
The Kings are 0-3-1 ATS as a road underdog of 4.5 points or fewer. They have also struggled immensely for bettors as of late, going just 1-4 ATS across their last 5 games.
On the other hand, the Pacers have shown some life after a rough start to the season, having won 3 of their last 5 contests and going 6-2 ATS in their last 8 games as an underdog. Indiana’s offense has come alive, scoring at least 119 points in 3 straight games.
Take PACERS -3.5 (-110).
BET UNDER 233.5 (-105).
Both teams are trending toward the Under. The Pacers are 2-4 O/U in their last 6 games, allowing 105 or fewer in 4 of those contests. They are 9-14 O/U on the season.
The Kings, who have scored 107 or fewer in 3 of their last 5 contests, have gone Under in 3 in a row and in 5 of their last 6 performances. Sacramento is 10-13 O/U on the season. Back UNDER 233.5 (-105).
