Season series: Raptors lead 2-1

The Pacers eclipsed the Heat 117-115 Sunday to win their 2nd in a row and 4th in 5 games. C Myles Turner had 22 points and 13 boards to lead 7 players in double figures. The Pacers sit in 6th with 3 games to go and could climb as high as 3rd or sink as low as 9th in the East.

The Raptors ended a long losing streak and have won 2 in a row. The latest was a 130-122 triumph over the Washington Wizards Sunday.

Pacers at Raptors and predictions

Prediction

Pacers 117, Raptors 105

Moneyline

There's no chance we're betting this ML. The Raptors are depleted by injuries, but they just beat the Milwaukee Bucks at their house 117-111 four days ago. That's a prime example why you don't bet such heavy favorites -- especially this late in the year.

Let's SGP PACERS -3.5 + RJ BARRETT 20 POINTS + MYLES TURNER 1 BLOCK (-115).

Turner has a block in 10 straight. Barrett has dropped 20 in 5 straight.

Against the spread

I don't see any point in playing either side of a 12.5-point spread. It's late in the year, and anything can happen.

PASS.

Over/Under

Both teams are 5-5 O/U over their last 10. The Over is 7-3 in the last 10 meetings between the teams. The Over 247.5 and 247 cashed in both February meetings, but the Raptors are missing a slew of parts due to injury. The total didn't come down far enough.

Take the UNDER 239.5 (-110).
