💰 BEST BET
BET: 🔥 Indiana Pacers at the spread with Unibet (-110)
This looks like it should be a close game, which of course means the best bet is to take the underdogs at the spread!
Bradley Beal is still clearly affected by his recent hamstring injury which also helps the Pacers.
Look for this one to go right down to the wire, with Indiana looking good to keep this one within a basket.

🧨 BEST PROP
PLAYER: Rui Hachimura
BET: 🔥 OVER 13.5 points with PointsBet (-120)
Rui wasn't at his best in the Wizards loss to the Celts the other day but his previous games before that saw him putting up these numbers: 16, 14, 11, 20, 13, 27 and 18.
Before Tuesday's game he had gone Over 13.5 in five of his last seven, with the other two games seeing him fall short by just one shot!
💥 BETMGM'S ONE GAME PARLAY
The first two legs are explained above, so I'll jump into the third and final leg of this one game parlay! We're expecting a reasonably nervy start to this game, with it being the first of its kind.
With both teams a chance to show some signs of nerves in the early stages of the game, the shooting may be poor which means we should see a low scoring first half before they get going in the second!
🔥 Pacers ATS
🔥 Rui o13.5 points
🔥 1st half UNDER 119.5 points
Odds +570 with BetMGM
