Indiana Pacers: Predicting results for the final 7 games

Indiana Pacers at Toronto Raptors, May 16 (TBD)

At last, the Indiana Pacers cap off their 2020-21 season on the road at Tampa Bay to battle the Toronto Raptors in perhaps the most important game of the season for both squads. By this point, both teams may very well find themselves contesting for a play-in spot. Expect a bloodbath here, with both teams giving it their all to stave off elimination from the postseason.

Currently, the Raptors are 11th and four full games behind the Pacers, but if they remain in the hunt, Toronto will be showcasing all their guns in what figures to be a heck of matchup between these two teams. Kyle Lowry may be motivated to finish his Raptors career on a positive note. Pascal Siakam, Fred VanVleet and OG Anunoby will also play with pride with their season on the line.

Or maybe the Raps are already out of contention for the play-in at that point. Either way, expect Nate Bjorkgren to be extra-motivated and beat his former team and mentor in Nick Nurse, catapulting the Pacers towards the play-in tournament with some momentum to equip themselves better if they indeed qualify for the end-of-season festivities.

Final Score: Indiana 108, Toronto 100

Final Record: 33-39
