Pacers vs Magic Prediction

The Monday NBA schedule will tip off with a matchup between the Indiana Pacers and the Orlando Magic from the Kia Center. For other NBA action see our NBA Predictions. The Pacers (1-2) are struggling to find their way through the early part of the season and are scoring an average of less than 110 points. This will be the second of a back-to-back for Indiana, who managed just nine points during the extra session of a 118-114 overtime loss versus Philadelphia.  

All-Star G Tyrese Haliburton led seven Indiana players in double figures with 22 points (8-18 FG) and four boards. Pascal Siakam added 17 points, six assists, and five rebounds. Obi Toppin scored 15 points in 23 minutes off the bench for the Pacers.

The Orlando Magic won 29 of 41 home games last season and have the talent to become a force in the Eastern Conference for years to come. Through their first three games, the Magic (2-1) are leading the conference in points allowed (107.3 ppg). On Saturday, Orlando trailed by 26 points at halftime during a 124-111 road loss against Memphis.

Orlando F Franz Wagner led all scorers with 23 points on 7-for-16 shooting and grabbed seven rebounds. Jalen Suggs added 21 points (6-17 FG) and seven boards for the Magic, who allowed the Grizzlies to shoot 54 percent from the field. 

Pacers vs Magic Pick Analysis

Orlando F Jonathan Isaac is hampered by a hip injury and is listed as questionable for this game. The Pacers are playing on consecutive nights and struggle defensively, so the over is my lean on the total. Look for the Magic to own the glass and pull away for a double digit home victory. Final Score Prediction, Orlando Magic win 119-108.
