NBA Betting Trends

Indiana

The Pacers are 1-3-1 ATS in their last five road games. The favorite is 8-1 ATS in the last nine meetings.

Charlotte

The Hornets are 6-1 ATS in their last seven games versus the Eastern Conference. Charlotte is 5-2 ATS in its last seven home games.

Prediction:

The Pacers are far from 100 percent and while the Hornets are returning from a West Coast trip, they had a couple rest days and are playing with some confidence. I think they take advantage of Indiana being beat up and get another win to move over .500 here. At the very least, the hosts have a couple points of cushion plus a hook if they lose a close one.
