Game: Indiana at Los Angeles (11:00 PM Eastern)
Pick: Indiana +7 (-110) at Bookmaker
The line in this game is certainly playing to the records of these teams. For Indiana, that doesn't quite represent what has happened after a hangover-type start off their Championship season from a year ago. The Fever got out of the gate at 1-7, but have played themselves back into contention for a playoffs spot in the East. The last 15 games would pit this matchup as a 10-5 Indiana team at a 12-3 Los Angeles team. With that in mind, the line certainly would look a bit different, so we have some value here on the dog. The Fever are a feisty 20-8 ATS off a single day of rest in their last 28 and have responded well lately off a loss at 5-0 ATS. The Sparks are just 9-19-1 ATS in their last 29 off of two days of rest. Take the points and play on Indiana.
