Pacers vs Hornets Prediction

I’m not running to the window to back either the Hornets or Pacers, but I’m certainly not laying chalk with either of these teams. You can say what you want about the Hornets, but they’re the healthier side with four wins and seven covers. The Pacers have one win and five covers. The Hornets will have the best player on the floor given the Pacers injury situation. The Pacers are 0-2 ATS and SU as a favorite this season. There are better games out there on this Wednesday, but I’ll grab the bucket if forced to pick.
