Our Indiana Pacers vs New Orleans Pelicans Prediction
The Pacers are the slight favorites in the game; however, the Pelicans look to be the best betting option. There is no question that Indiana and New Orleans are the two worst teams in the NBA. The Pacers are 3-7 over their last 10 games, while the Pelicans are 2-8 over the same stretch.
That being said, New Orleans is coming off a win, while Indiana lost by double-digits again in their most recent game. The Pelicans, while just 3-15 on the road, have several solid players, including Zion Williamson and Trey Murphy III.
Therefore, despite the fact that both teams have been terrible, New Orleans looks to have more depth. For that reason, our Indiana Pacers vs New Orleans Pelicans prediction is: New Orleans Pelicans +2.5.Claim $300 for your Indiana Pacers vs New Orleans Pelicans wager!
