Indiana Pacers vs Charlotte Hornets prediction
Laying double-digit chalk with an Indiana Pacers team on the road that doesn’t play defense and may or may not have Haliburton doesn’t feel ideal. However, the Hornets continue to rack up the losses and failed covers, and they’ve put themselves in the automatic fade spot. The Hornets are 19-33 ATS on the season despite being massive underdogs more times than not. Oddsmakers are telling you what they think of the Hornets with these lines. It’s Pacers or pass for me.
