Pacers vs Nets Injury Report

The Nets will be without Haywood Highsmith and Drake Powell.

Pacers vs Nets Prediction

The Pacers are obviously the more talented team and should be favored. The Nets are winless, and their owner admitted before the season that they’d be tanking this season. The Pacers are also 5-2 ATS on the year despite the losses. Still, I’m not laying this many points with a Pacers team that has nearly its entire team on the injury report. The Pacers need to get bodies back before I show them attention in the big favorite role. It’s the Nets and the points or pass for me.
