76ers vs Pacers Prediction

Don’t look now, but the Pacers have won 4 of their last 6 games and have covered 8 of their last 10 games. However, these wins came against the Kings, Bulls and Wizards, teams you, three of your friends, and myself could beat. The Pacers are still extremely banged up and not a team I trust night to night.

This is probably the healthiest the 76ers will be all season, as Embiid and Maxey are probable, while PG13 isn’t on the injury report at all. At home and with the stars together, this should be a good performance from the 76ers and the fans should be out in full force. While the 76ers are known to disappoint, so nothing would surprise me, this is a favorable spot and the line isn’t crazy. I’ll lay the points.
