Pacers and Nets Face Off as Both Teams Seek to End Losing Streaks
Indiana looks to capitalize on Brooklyn's injury woes in their first meeting of the season.
- The Indiana Pacers (9-13) will play the Brooklyn Nets (9-13) at 7:30 p.m. ET at Barclays Center in New York.
- Brooklyn is dealing with significant injuries, including leading scorer Cam Thomas and key players Dorian Finney-Smith, Cameron Johnson, and Ben Simmons listed as out or questionable.
- The Pacers have lost three consecutive games, while the Nets have also dropped their last three, struggling offensively with no game above 102 points during that stretch.
- Indiana's Tyrese Haliburton, despite career-low shooting percentages, showed signs of improvement with a 30-point performance in the team's last game against Toronto.
- Betting odds favor the Pacers slightly, with experts predicting a close game due to Brooklyn's depleted roster and Indiana's inconsistent form.
