Indiana hosts Oklahoma City at Bankers Life FieldHouse for this East vs West clash in the NBA on Thursday. The Pacers come into this contest sitting eighth in the Eastern Conference at 15-15 while the Thunder lead the West at 23-5. Read on to see our match prediction.

The Pacers are starting to put things together after an indifferent start to the year. Last season’s Eastern Conference finalists have ripped off five straight victories to bring their record to .500 on the year.

Most recently, Indiana ran out 111-105 winners on the road over the Warriors. What’s even more impressive is that four of the Pacers’ five wins during this current winning streak have come as the visiting team.

They now return to their home gym, where they’ve posted an 8-4 record so far.

Since falling to the Bucks in the NBA Cup final, the Thunder have been able to bounce back. They’ve won their last three in a row overall and their last eight straight in the regular season only.

The Thunder locked up a routine 123-105 win over the lowly Wizards on Monday for their 23rd of the campaign as they battle with Cleveland for the NBA’s best record. OKC is also currently tied with Boston for the league’s best road mark at 11-3.
