Indiana Pacers Betting Preview
The Indiana Pacers have endured a terrible start to the season as they’ve lost 10 of their first 11 games. They will be hoping to put an end to a five-game slide after getting embarrassed by the Jazz in a 152-128 road defeat on Tuesday. Pascal Siakam led the team with 27 points, five rebounds and four assists, Andrew Nembhard added 25 points with seven assists while Aaron Nesmith chipped in with 17 points and seven assists. As a team, the Pacers shot 46 percent from the field and 10 of 37 from the 3-point line, but they allowed 70 points in the first half and never looked threatening after leaking another 44 points in the third quarter.
Phoenix Suns Betting Preview
Meanwhile, the Phoenix Suns have quietly been one of the form teams in the league as they’ve won six of their past seven games overall. They will be gunning for a fifth straight victory after outlasting the Mavericks in a 123-114 road win last night. Devin Booker led the team with 26 points and nine assists, Grayson Allen added 23 points with five rebounds and three assists while Dillon Brooks chipped in with 18 points. As a team, the Suns shot 46 percent from the field and 14 of 35 from the 3-point line as they jumped all over the Mavericks from the tipoff and outpaced them to an 18-point lead. This was just enough to hold off a late charge from the Mavericks who cut the lead to just three points with 1:48 left on the clock.

Suns vs Pacers Prediction
The Pacers are still missing a bunch of players including Tyrese Haliburton, Bennedict Mathurin and Quenton Jackson, while the Suns are again playing without Jalen Green. The Pacers are dealing with a list of injuries so it’s not too surprising that they’ve been struggling, but things certainly didn’t look good in their last game where they allowed a season-high 152 points. In contrast, the Suns have been in terrific form lately and are coming off another comfortable win over the Mavericks. Yes, the Suns are playing their second game of a back to back set, but I still see plenty of value with them at the short line at home.
