Pacers vs Raptors Prediction

The Raptors have obviously been the more consistent team and should be favored. The Raptors have also won 4 of the last 5 games against the Pacers. However, the Raptors are banged up, while the Pacers are as healthy as they’ve been all season and have won 3 straight games. Sure, three wins doesn’t turn a season completely around, but we know what the Pacers are capable of when they’re close to full strength and playing to their potential. The Pacers have seen 7 of their 9 wins come at home. I’ll grab the bucket in this spot.
