Premium Pick

Charlotte is very fortunate to be in this position as it lost the last five games of the regular season, and the Hornets are 3-6 ATS their past nine games. The reason they're not getting more points is that Indiana has some injury problems, but the Pacers still are in better form and have won four of their past seven games despite the injuries, including 125-113 over Toronto on Sunday while shooting 50.5% and holding the Raptors to only 40.2%. Charlotte has covered just one of its past seven road games, and the Hornets are 1-6 ATS playing with one day of rest, 1-4 ATS their past five games at Indiana. The Pacers are on a 6-0-1 ATS run, and they have covered the number their past five home games. Play the Pacers.
