Staff Prediction
The Pacers come into this one off of a win last time out that broke their 7 game win streak. Bennedict Mathurin was the leading scorer for Indiana last night, with 26 points vs the Bulls. The Magic come into this one having won 2 of their last 3 games and are coming off of a win last time out. Paolo Banchero looks like the leading candidate for rookie of the year and is coming off of a 23 point performance in Orlando's win over the Celtics on Monday. The Pacers are the better team, but with Orlando at home, I expect them to win this one and cover the 5 points.
