Our Oklahoma City Thunder vs Indiana Pacers Prediction
Without Haliburton, the Pacers are simply a different team. Not to say they are a bad team, but Haliburton was one of the reasons why the Pacers were in the NBA Finals this past summer.
Oklahoma City, on the other hand, will face its first road test of the new season. Coming off a double overtime win, there could be some fatigue; however, the Thunder did have a full rest day to recover.
The Thunder did not cover the spread in their season opener and very well could have lost the game. That being said, they are clearly the better team, especially with Indiana missing their star player. For that reason, our Indiana Pacers vs Oklahoma City Thunder prediction is: Oklahoma City Thunder -8.5.Claim $300+ for your Oklahoma City Thunder vs Indiana Pacers wager!
