Pacers Game Tonight: Pacers vs Warriors Odds, Injury Report, and Predictions for Dec. 13
Despite a boatload of rumors churning around the franchise, the Indiana Pacers evaded the noise and pulled off an impressive 106-93 victory at home over the Dallas Mavericks to push them to 12-16 on the season. It was the team’s third-straight victory, their longest win streak so far in the campaign.
While the Pacers managed to outclass the Luka Doncic-led Mavs, another MVP candidate will come to town, with Stephen Curry and the 21-5 Golden State Warriors crashing against Indy for the first time this season. All eyes will be on the two-time MVP, as he only needs seven three-pointers to usurp Ray Allen for the record.
On the season, the Pacers are 9-6 at the Gainbridge Fieldhouse and 5-4 against the West while the Warriors are 7-3 on the road and 9-2 against Eastern Conference foes. Indiana ranks ninth in offensive rating and 12th in defensive rating while Golden State sits at fourth and first, respectively, on the same departments.

Indiana Pacers vs Golden State Warriors Prediction
The Pacers certainly have momentum with three straight wins on their belt, appearing to be fired up after being the talk of the town recently. Indiana has matched up well against Golden State in recent seasons, but this year’s Warriors teams is simply dominant in every sense of the word, boasting the association’s second-best record and being near-tops in almost every statistical category.
With Steph Curry inching closer to cementing himself as the three-point king in NBA history, the Warriors will be more than motivated to carve out a win on the road, especially coming off a disappointing loss against the 76ers. Indiana will put up a good fight as usual, but they could be on the wrong side of history on this one.
