76ers at Pacers picks and predictions
Prediction
76ers 121, Pacers 112
Moneyline
PASS.
At -210, there is no value betting on a Sixers team that is 7-3 in its last 10 to beat a Pacers team that has lost 5 of its last 6 and is without its top player in Haliburton.
Against the spread
BET 76ERS -5.5 (-110).
Philadelphia has a 27-15 ATS record this season and has covered in 4 of its last 6 games while winning each of its last 6 by 5 points or more. It faces an Indiana squad that has struggled recently without Haliburton and has failed to cover in 4 of its last 5 overall and 3 of its last 4 at home. While Embiid should not be expected to go for another franchise record, expect him and company to dominate a Pacers team that has failed to score consistently in Haliburton's absence.
Over/Under
BET UNDER 237.5 (-110).
Indiana has hit the Under in 8 of its last 10 games, including each of its last 3 overall and 3 of its last 4 at home. It has scored 115 or fewer points in 5 of its last 6, while allowing 118 or fewer in 4 of its last 6. Philadelphia has held opponents to 115 or fewer in 4 of its last 6. While both teams typically play at a fast pace, expect fewer points than normal due to injuries.
