The Indiana Pacers are playing the second of three games happening on their home court, after a challenging week when they lost three of the four games played on the road. They still have a shot at getting things right, but that negative steak sank them to 11th place, 3.5 games behind the Chicago Bulls, who presently hold the last spot for the play-in.
Indiana had an unstable period since the All-Star Game break. Matter of fact, this last stretch of the regular season, they won only 7 out of 15 games, and as hosts, they haven’t been strong, holding the 10th worst record, with 19 wins and 17 losses.
The star of the Pacers is still Tyrese Haliburton, who leads the team in scoring, averaging 20.7 points through 56 games played in the league. Haliburton also leads the team by delivering 10.4 assists per game.
It remains to be seen if the Indiana Pacers will make a comeback and race for the playoffs.

Led by Mike Budenholzer, the Milwaukee Bucks are in the middle of a tough four-game road trip. They’ve won in Utah, lost in Denver, and faced Detroit this last Monday. It is important that they keep winning especially if they want to keep their conference and secure the best record in the NBA going into the playoffs.
Milwaukee is home to one of the biggest superstars in the league, Giannis Antetokounmpo. The Greek phenom is regarded as one of the top contenders for the MVP award at the end of this season, with an impressive 31.1 average and 11.7 rebounds per game. Giannis’ exceptional performance brought the Bucks to the second-best team in the NBA on the road, with a record of 23 wins and 14 losses.
MatchPlug Prediction
The Milwaukee Bucks have proven themselves to be a top-tier team in the last month, reaffirming their contender status with an outstanding 12 wins in 16 games during the postseason break. Led by the incredible Antetokounmpo, the Bucks rank ninth in points per game (116.7) and ninth in the league for points allowed (112.4).
Indiana on the other hand spot a good scoring average of 115.8 points per game (11th best in the league) but unfortunately, they have the second-worst defense in the NBA, allowing a whopping 118.6 points per game. Due to this, their net efficiency rating is the fifth worst in the league (-2.8).
Although the Pacers will likely put up a good fight in a hail Mary attempt to make the playoffs, the Bucks’ consistent performance makes them the team to win in today’s game, even if they’re the visitors.
Final Prediction: Milwaukee Bucks Moneyline.
