Indiana Pacers vs Washington Wizards Prediction

The Pacers badly need to capitalize on their homestand to offset their bad road trip. Facing the Wizards, who are currently riddled with injuries, should be their best chance at seizing one. With that considered, look for Indiana to simply overpower the visitors and get back to the winning column as a tough schedule looms.
