Prediction

Bucks 123, Pacers 116

Money line (ML)

The Bucks (-400) will cost you four times your potential return, and that’s risky any time, but especially on the road.

Against the spread (ATS)

The PACERS +8.5 (-110) are worth a play catching more than four buckets on its home court. Indiana has clinched a play-in spot, but they’re still in the mix to serve as host for one of the games. Indiana has also cashed in five of the past seven games at home against the Bucks.

Over/Under (O/U)

OVER 240.5 (-110) is the play in this one, as Indiana’s defense has been rather erratic lately. Yes, they did hold Philadelphia to a season-low 94 points last time out, but the Over is 7-3 across the past 10 games overall. And the Over is also 6-2 in Milwaukee’s past eight on the road against teams with a losing home mark.
