In principle, Indiana plays well on its home court. The Flames recently swatted Boston and New York at home. The last failure in the confrontation with Miami can be considered a banal misfire. The Pacers may perform more successfully that time.
Our prediction is Indiana to win with overtime at 1.75
Bet on total
In the previous match, the teams scored 235 points. Indiana plays very effectively, so the outcome of that match should be repeated.
Forecast - total over 227.5 points for 1.75

Siakam is a very inconsistent player. Most of the time he did not score more than 19 points. It is quite possible that he will not be able to do it again.
