Indiana is on a six-game skid, but it's been a brutal schedule and they are hanging in most of these games. They lost at Portland by 6, at the Kings by 1, and the Pacers are 9-2 ATS in their last 11 road games. Indiana is #2 in the NBA in rebounds and the Pacers are 5-1 ATS on the road against a team with a winning home record, plus they're 7-2 ATS after a spread loss. That rebounding edge will come in handy against Toronto, a team that is second in the NBA in scoring, but still one of the worst rebounding teams (#26). Toronto is 0-4 ATS in their last four home games. When these Eastern rivals meet the road team is 7-2 ATS in the last nine meetings and the underdog is on a 4-0 ATS run. Take Indiana.
