Fire vs Fever Prediction
The Fire are on the end of a back-to-back and now have to play an up-tempo Fever team. It’s not a great spot. However, this is a lot of points for a Fever team that has underachieved through 7 games, picks and chooses when to defend, and hasn’t been good at covering massive numbers. The Fever are 5-8 ATS in their last 13 games as a double-digit favorite. I know the Fever blew the Fire out 10 days ago, but I’m just not thrilled to lay this big of a number with Indiana. Give me the points with the Fire.
