The Pacers are coming into this game with a 25-50 record overall and they are 16-21 in their home games this season where they will be in this game. They are coming into this game on a 3 game losing streak. Their last win was against the Portland Trail Blazers while their 3 losses since then have come against the Sacramento Kings, the Memphis Grizzlies, and the Toronto Raptors in their last game.

The Pacers have an ATS record of 33-40-2 this season and their O/U record is 40-34-1.

 

 

The Hawks are coming into this game off of a win in their last game but they have not been playing the best in their recent games. They have won 2 of their last 3 games and 3 of their last 5 but they are barely clinging to a playoff spot right now and the style in which they are winning games is not exactly reliable. The Hawks do not play any defense in their games but they are going to be looking for a win to ensure they get into the playoffs hanging onto that final spot. They are going up against a Pacers team that has been awful in their recent games and they are going to be missing most of their key players for this game. The Pacers have lost their last 3 games straight and they are coming into this one off of 2 straight losses by over 30 points. The Hawks have not been great on the road this season but the pacers have been awful recently and they will not be able to hold off the offense of the Hawks here. The Hawks will win this game on the road and will do it by double digits as the depleted Pacers just try to make it to the end of the season.

"We knew what we needed to do is get stops. They went on a run, hit some tough 3s and contested 3s. Late in the game, it comes down to getting stops and executing down the stretch. We did a good job of doing that. Klay hit some tough shots, but it was good to get some stops." - Trae Young after their win against the Warriors on Friday night.

 

 

"You could definitely smell it. By the time (the game) stopped the smell was tough. Fifteen years for me, probably the most bizarre situation that we've been in for a game.” - Lloyd Pierce on the fire that broke out Saturday night during their game against the Raptors.
