Pacers Game Tonight: Pacers at Hawks Odds, Injury Report, and Predictions for Mar. 13
By Zach Pearson
The Indiana Pacers are fresh off their first win since the second day of March after defeating a rattled San Antonio Spurs team Saturday night. Now, they take on the 10th place Atlanta Hawks in a game the Pacers want to lose.
Tyrese Haliburton and Duane Washington Jr. led the Pacers in scoring last night with 19 points. Haliburton also tallied 10 assists with Malcolm Brogdon expected to miss more time with a concussion. Isaiah Jackson continues to impress for the Pacers, notching 15 points and 5 rebounds in last night’s win.
On the season, the Pacers are 8-26 on the road and Indiana ranks 18th in offensive rating and 26th in defensive rating while Atlanta sits at 2nd and 27th respectively, on the same departments.

Indiana Pacers at Atlanta Hawks Prediction
The Indiana Pacers are simply less healthy than this Hawks team with Trae Young available who has notoriously killed the Pacers in recent memory. The Pacers were able to carve out a win against the Spurs, but they were also injured.
Atlanta needs to win games and win them now. The Pacers are the exact opposite. Indiana has good young talent, but the lack of depth and experience could factor into this contest. I see the Pacers put together a strong fight, but falling shy of victory in Atlanta.
