Friday NBA Free play. My selection is on Indiana plus the points (+6.5) over Philadelphia at 7:10 pm ET on Friday.
The Pacers enter this matchup on a rough stretch, losing five of their last six games, including an outright loss as 11.5-point favorites against the Hornets in their most recent outing. However, the extended four-day layoff should provide an opportunity for Indiana to regroup and refocus as it looks to avenge an overtime loss to the 76ers earlier this season. Despite their struggles, the Pacers remain a potent offensive team capable of scoring in bunches, which makes them dangerous as an underdog in this spot.
Philadelphia has been on a roll, covering the spread in five straight games and going 4-1 straight up over that span. Yet, their offensive efficiency has come with limited volume. The 76ers have attempted 85 or fewer field goals in four of their last five games and have yet to surpass 43 made field goals in any of their 22 games this season. This lack of high-volume scoring makes covering larger spreads challenging, particularly against a motivated opponent like Indiana. Look for the Pacers to keep this one close or even pull off the upset.
Take Indiana. Projected score: Philadelphia 112, Indiana 110.
