Toronto Raptors vs Indiana Pacers Prediction
The Indiana Pacers continue to underachieve SU and ATS, and they’re a horrible 2-9 SU on the road this season. The Toronto Raptors have been competitive all season and have covered numbers, but they’ve also won 2 of their last 3 games. This could be a turning point in the Raptors season, and they beat the Pacers a couple of weeks ago as 4 point underdogs. The underdog has covered 6 of the last 7 games between the Pacers and Raptors. Give me the free bucket.
