Indiana Pacers vs Atlanta Hawks: Prediction and betting tips for 2023-24 NBA In-Season Tournament | Nov. 21, 2023

The Indiana Pacers will look to win their third straight NBA In-Season Tournament win when they take on the Atlanta Hawks on Tuesday. A win by Indy will give them an excellent chance of advancing to the knockouts.

The Pacers will bank on Tyrese Haliburton, who will look to bounce back after an off-night against the Orlando Magic in their last game. Myles Turner, Bennedict Mathurin, Bruce Brown and Buddy Hield are expected to play key roles for Indiana as well.

The Atlanta Hawks are coming off back-to-back losses to the New York Knicks and Philadelphia 76ers. Another defeat will extend their slump and put them in danger of missing the knockouts of the NBA In-Season Tournament.

Trae Young has been playing well but hasn’t had consistent support from his teammates. He will hope for a boost from the roster to end the team's losing skid.

The Pacers and the Hawks last met in March this year. Both teams have made significant changes to the rosters, but Young and Tyrese Haliburton remain the top players to watch.

Indiana Pacers vs Atlanta Hawks: Game preview

Indiana was on a roll just a week ago. They racked up three straight wins that included an upset of Giannis Antetokounmpo, Damian Lillard and the Milwaukee Bucks.

Since then, they’ve alternated wins and losses. The Pacers are unbeaten in the NBA In-Season Tournament, though, and will look to keep it that way.

The Hawks, meanwhile, are reeling. They're 1-3 in their last four games and have lost back-to-back games.

Quin Snyder has not gotten consistent production from his supporting cast. That would have to change or they run the risk of being eliminated from the NBA In-Season Tournament.
