Pacers at Pelicans odds, lines, picks and predictions
Prediction
Pelicans 109, Pacers 103
Money line
The Pelicans have won three straight games at home, including against the Golden State Warriors and Los Angeles Clippers.
The Pacers picked up wins in two of their first four games on the road trip but had an eight-game road losing skid before that.
With the Pacers missing as many as four of their top five scorers on the team, take PELICANS (-155).
Against the spread
The Pacers have covered the spread in three straight games. They are 11-12 ATS on the road.
The Pelicans are 21-24 ATS overall but 13-8 ATS at home. They have covered the spread in their last nine victories.
With the spread so low, it doesn’t make sense to think the Pelicans will win but not cover.
Take the PELICANS -3.5 (-107).
Over/Under
The last four games for the Pelicans have stayed Under the projected total, as have six of their last seven.
The Pacers are 6-8 O/U in their last 14 games.
Despite not being great defensively neither team is great enough offensively to take advantage of that.
Take UNDER 214.5 (-108).
