Jazz at Pacers picks and predictions

Prediction

Pacers 118, Jazz 115

Moneyline

PASS.

I’ll take the Pacers (-105) to win, but considering 1 of their last 4 home games ended in a 1-point loss, I’d prefer to look to the spread for value.

Against the spread

BET PACERS +1.5 (-115).

Utah is just 10-18 straight up on the road, yet it is 15-12-1 ATS on the road.

Indiana is 18-12 ATS at home this season, and it is 3-3 ATS over its last 6 home games despite being 1-3 ATS over its last 4 overall. Indiana is also 13-7 ATS as a home underdog, so this is a spot it has thrived in.

The Pacers also have C Myles Turner, who is among the best rim protectors in the NBA and should limit F Lauri Markkanen, the Jazz’s leading scorer.

Ultimately, considering their strength at home, back the PACERS +1.5 (-115).

Over/Under

LEAN UNDER 237.5 (-108).

The Pacers and Jazz both rank outside the top 5 in pace, so this high total doesn’t quite match the tempo that this game may be played. Both rank outside the top 10 in effective field-goal rate as well.

Indiana is 2-5 O/U in its last 7 games and 14-15-1 O/U at home this season. Considering the Pacers’ recent trends and the style of these teams, back the UNDER 237.5 (-108).
