- The Pacers are not good enough defensively to shut down the Thunder, as Indiana is 25th in the NBA in defensive rating.
- Indiana recently lost Bennedict Mathurin for the rest of the season due to a shoulder injury and that should hurt their chances in a game like this one.
The Indiana Pacers will face off with the Oklahoma City Thunder on March 12, 2024 at 8:00 pm ET. The opening betting odds from DraftKings Sportsbook have the Indiana Pacers as 7.0 point underdogs.
The early action has the Indiana Pacers taking 25% of the spread bets, while the Oklahoma City Thunder are getting 75% of the bets.

We should see some fast-paced basketball in the Pacers vs Thunder matchup from Oklahoma City on Tuesday night. That should work in the favor of the Oklahoma City Thunder, who we expect to win and cover the spread at home here. OKC should be able to get up and down the floor effectively against a Pacers team that plays little to no defense depending on the night. Look for the team at the top of the Western Conference standings to get another big win to stay in first place in their conference.
