DraftKings. Jarace Walker has emerged of late for the stumbling Pacers, clearing this line in eight of his last ten games. This is an excellent matchup for his play style, as Toronto is allowing the fifth most points to spot up shooters. With Walker’s continued development paramount for the tanking Pacers, look for the Houston product to clear this line in his third straight game.
There have been specific spots when the depleted Pacers have offered some value, but it's never a blanket endorsement for Indiana this term. Recently, a bit more competitive, but still apt to lose, as the Pacers have now done three straight, and l the normal flux on the roster, with recent add ex-Clips C Ivica Zubac not yet due to make his Indiana debut, and Aaron Nesmith making the injury report (elbow, questionable). The playoff-bound Raps have already beaten the Pacers three times this season and were hitting on all cylinders when last seen Thursday night as Brandon ingram scored 33 in a 123-107 cruise past the Bulls at Scotiabank, which Toronto is hoping to turn into a bit more of a fortress. Play Raptors
Scottie Barnes has averaged 19.8 points, 8.0 rebounds and 6.6 assists over his last 14 games. This is a great matchup for him to remain productive with the Pacers ranking ninth in pace of play and 20th in defensive rating. In three previous meetings with them this season, Barnes averaged 21.3 points, 9.3 rebounds and 7.7 assists. Immanuel Quickley (ankle) is questionable, so if he sits, Barnes could really go off. Even if Quickley plays, I like this over.
