Indiana Pacers vs Atlanta Hawks Player Prop Picks 3/6/25 NBA Picks

The Indiana Pacers (35-25) will face the Atlanta Hawks (28-34) on March 6, 2025, at State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia. The Pacers have been in strong form lately, winning six of their last eight games, including a 115-102 victory over the Houston Rockets. Tyrese Haliburton has been a key player, contributing 28 points and 15 assists in that win. Indiana has one of the league’s most efficient offenses, ranking ninth in points per game with 116.6 and shooting 49.2% from the field, including 37.3% from three-point range. However, their defense has been a weak point, as they allow 115.1 points per game and struggle to contain opponents in the paint, giving up 44.7 rebounds per game.

The Hawks, on the other hand, have faced recent struggles, losing two consecutive games, including a 127-121 defeat to the Milwaukee Bucks where Trae Young led with 28 points and 13 assists. Atlanta has one of the league’s top offenses, ranking sixth with 118.3 points per game. However, their defense has been problematic, ranking third-worst in defensive rating and allowing 118.1 points per game. The Hawks’ defense has been particularly vulnerable in the paint, conceding over 50 points per game in that area.

Myles Turner Over 16.5 Points

Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner has participated in 52 games during the 2024-25 NBA season, averaging 15.5 points, 6.5 rebounds, and 1.6 assists per game. He has been efficient from the field, shooting 47.3% overall and 40.5% from three-point range. Myles Turner is coming off of back-to-back games where he only scored 16 points, but this is a good spot for him to bounce back. The Hawks play at a fast pace, just like the Pacers, so I expect this to be a high-scoring game. We’ve seen Myles Turner eclipse the 20-point mark plenty of times this season, and he’s fully capable of getting over this number. 

Trae Young Over 25.5 Points

Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young has been delivering an impressive performance in the 2024-25 NBA season. Over 57 games, he averages 23.6 points, 3.1 rebounds, and leads the league with 11.5 assists per game. His shooting efficiency stands at 40.4% from the field and 33.0% from three-point range. Young is coming off a solid game where he scored 28 points against the Milwaukee Bucks. With the Hawks getting rid of DeAndre Hunter and Jalen Johnson being out for the season due to injury, Trae Young is one of the Hawks’ only competent high-level scorers. Indiana is giving up 115.1 points per game to opposing teams, which is well above the league average. This is a good spot for Trae Young to have a solid night scoring in the ball. 

Pascal Siakam Over 1.5 Three Pointers

Indiana Pacers forward, Pascal Siakam, is having a standout season, particularly with his three-point shooting. Over 59 games, he averages 20.6 points, 7.3 rebounds, and 3.3 assists per game. His shooting efficiency is impressive, with a field goal percentage of 52.3% and a three-point percentage of 41.0%. Siakam has only made over one three-pointer in three of his last 10 games, but this is a good spot for him to bounce back from beyond the arc. The Hawks are giving up 14.2 3-pointers per game to opposing teams, which is the fifth most in the league.  We can also get some plus money at this 1.5 line.
