Indiana Pacers vs Orlando Magic Prediction & Betting Tips - NBA
by Joseph King | in NBA Predictions
Saturday night in the NBA sees an Eastern Conference clash as the eighth-place Indiana Pacers host the fourth-place Orlando Magic. The Pacers have slowed down in recent weeks after a strong start to the season which saw them win 12 of their first 20 games. Since then, Indiana have managed only two wins from their last eight, bringing their record to 14-13 on the year with a third of the season in the books. On the bright side, six of those eight games have come on the road with their only home loss during that time coming to the red-hot Clippers. Indiana’s last home appearance resulted in a big 144-113 win over the Hornets. The Pacers have become accustomed to high-scoring totals this season as they lead the NBA in points per game at 126.4. They’ll be sweating the fitness of star point guard Tyrese Haliburton as the 23-year-old is listed as questionable with an ankle injury.
The Magic are in a near identical spot to the Pacers as they have also cooled off considerably in recent weeks. Orlando enters this one on a four game losing streak following a 118-114 defeat to the Bucks. It was their sixth loss in the last eight games as the visitors record has dropped to 16-11 on the year. Still, Orlando are in a fantastic spot with the fourth-seed in the Eastern Conference. They’ve been powered by their elite defense which ranks third in adjusted rating and is giving up the fifth-lowest points per game at 110.4. This presents an interesting contrast as Indiana likes to overpower teams with their relentless offense, practically neglecting the defensive side of the ball. While Orlando’s losing streak may seem bad at first glance, they’ve played a murder’s row of Boston (twice), Miami and Milwaukee.
