Pacers at 76ers picks and predictionsPrediction
76ers 116, Pacers 110
PASS.
There isn’t a worthwhile moneyline option. The 76ers (-300) are relatively healthy and should win at home, but that price makes the play easy to pass on.
BET PACERS +7.5 (-115).
The 76ers have been atrocious at covering at home. They’re just 1-7 ATS over their last 8 home games and 1-4 ATS as a home favorite. Philadelphia’s offense has also gone cold, scoring 116 or fewer in 3 straight.
The Pacers have found a rhythm, especially on offense, putting up at least 116 points in 4 straight games. They’re 8-2 ATS in their last 10 and 3-0 ATS in their road games over that span. Given those trends, back PACERS +7.5 (-115).
BET UNDER 226.5 (-115).
Both teams are trending toward the Under. The Pacers have gone Under in 5 of their last 7 contests, largely because of their rock-solid defense. They’ve allowed 105 or fewer points in each of those Under results.
The 76ers have gone Under in 4 straight and have also tightened things up defensively, giving up more than 112 points in just 1 of their last 6 outings. Take UNDER 226.5 (-115).
