    Pacers vs Magic Prediction, Picks, Odds: Latest News, Injury Updates

    Online Niel Posted on

    play

    The Indiana Pacers hosting Orlando Magic Wednesday, November 6, 2024 at 7:00 PM ET. It’s Indiana’s first rematch of the season.

    The Pacers (3-4) are coming off their best game of the season, a 134-127 victory over the Dallas Mavericks. If Myles Turner he could play in Dallas every game, he’d be a Hall of Famer. Turner is enjoying being back in his hometown, this time going for 30 points and 11 rebounds. Tyrese Haliburton added 25 points and 12 assists.

    The Magic (3-5) are a much different team than they were on Oct. 28 when they beat the Pacers 119-115. Paolo Banchero, who torched Indiana for 50 points, is out with an oblique injury, and Jalen Suggs and Franz Wagner (17.6 ppg each) now carry a bigger load.

    Orlando has lost four straight games to the Pacers, including a 33-point decision over Dallas. The Magic’s last three losses have all been by double digits.

    Dustin Dopirak: Pacers 115-106

    The Pacers scored 130 points in regulation for the first time this season against the Mavericks. Defensive-centric Magic is unlikely. However, Orlando is reeling with Paolo Banchero, and Wendell Carter Jr.’s injury isn’t helping either. The Pacers aren’t perfectly healthy either, with Aaron Nesmith out with an ankle injury and their center position. But Orlando is 50 points short of their previous meeting.
