The Line: Betting Odds: Indiana Pacers -5.5 — Over/Under: 230
The Detroit Pistons and the Indiana Pacers collide at the Gainbridge Fieldhouse on Wednesday night. Here’s a Detroit Pistons vs Indiana Pacers Prediction. This article will include a Detroit Pistons vs Indiana Pacers Pick.
Detroit PistonsÂ
The Detroit Pistons have been in a rut as they’ve lost four of their last six games overall and they will be hoping to avoid a third straight defeat after getting trampled by the Cavaliers in a 110-91 road defeat on Monday. Cade Cunningham led the team with 22 points and seven assists, Malik Beasley added 19 points off the bench while Jalen Duren chipped in with 12 points, 16 rebounds, and three blocks. As a team, the Pistons shot just 38 percent from the field and 10 of 36 from the 3-point line as they struggled to keep pace with the Cavaliers from the start and got outscored in every quarter to lose by double digits for just the second time in their last 14 games overall.Â
Indiana PacersÂ
Meanwhile, the Indiana Pacers have been in great shape as they’ve won nine of their last 11 games overall and they will be eager to keep it going after blowing past the Spurs in a 136-98 win in Paris on Saturday. Tyrese Haliburton led the team with 28 points on 11 of 17 shooting, Pascal Siakam added 23 points with 11 rebounds and three blocks while Andrew Nembhard chipped in with 15 points, eight rebounds, and nine assists. As a team, the Pacers shot 52 percent from the field and 17 of 39 from the 3-point line as they jumped all over the Spurs from the start, taking a 15-point lead into halftime, before they dominated the fourth quarter by 38-12 to make it a complete blowout in the end.Â

Detroit Pistons vs Indiana Pacers Prediction
The Pistons are still slightly shorthanded with Jaden Ivey still out, while the Pacers have ruled out Isaiah Jackson again and they have Andrew Nembhard listed as questionable. The Pistons could really do with a win to get their season back on track, but they’ve been in poor form compared to the Pacers who are playing some of their best basketball of the season. The Pacers should also be well-rested as they haven’t played since Saturday, so I like the Pacers to get the win and cover at the modest line at home.
