Indiana Pacers vs Oklahoma City Thunder : Indiana Pacers win (+164)

Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing

The bet on the Indiana Pacers is supported by a higher scoring record in recent games. Over the last five games, the Pacers have an average team score of 122.2 compared to the Thunder's 117.8. This trend holds true in home games as well, with the Pacers scoring an average of 121 points at home, versus the Thunder's 117 points away. While both teams have similar recent win-loss records, the Pacers' scoring edge gives them an advantage. Moreover, the teams' respective records versus each other stand at an even 2-2, so past performance doesn't favor one team heavily over the other. Therefore, the higher scoring average of the Pacers makes them a reasonable choice for the bet.
