Pacers vs 76ers NBA Preview
A caveat here: the injury report for this game is a mess. Tyrese Haliburton is out for the Pacers. Of course, Sixers backup Ariel Hukporti, who suffered a torn Achilles, is out.
But Joel Embiid is also listed as out for this game with injury maintenance on his foot. So is Adem Bona with a cervical spine sprain (which sounds extremely not fun). Philadelphia does not have a center. It’s Tacko Fall. That’s it. They have no other centers available on the roster.
Indiana, though, has Andrew NembhardandAaron Nesmith listed as questionable for this game. What a disaster.
So betting into this game is a mess. That said, I think there’s value on the Pacers.
Pacers vs 76ers Pick, Betting Analysis
First off, the Pacers are the No.2 defense against pick-and-roll ball handlers this season. They are fundamentally sound in defending and keeping guards from getting to the rim or firing from three, funneling them into the mid-range.
Now, the Sixers are glad to do that; they’re excellent mid-range shooters, but that’s less Tyrese Maxey’s game, and more Jaylen Brown and Embiid’s game, but of course, Embiid is out. These are also less efficient shots than Maxey’s spray of attempts.
Philly is the second-worst transition team in the league. Indiana really doesn’t play as much in transition as we’re used to, whether that's without Haliburton or just a different team this year.
However, the Pacers are still hyper-efficient when they do, scoring at the second-highest per-possession rate. They’ll get out and run, and the Sixers will let them.
I make this game 7.1 based on my full model and only Sixers -6.1 based on in-season figures. I think Indiana hangs and might win this game outright.
Pick: Pacers +7.5 (-110, FanDuel)
