Indiana Pacers vs Portland Trail Blazers Prediction and Betting Tips | Feb. 4, 2025

The Indiana Pacers will try to complete a sweep of the Portland Trail Blazers when they meet again on Tuesday.

The resurgent Blazers are 4-1 in their season-high seven-game homestand. Anfernee Simons and Co. are 8-1 over the last two weeks, evidence of their improved play on both ends of the floor. Deandre Ayton, Scoot Henderson, Deni Avdija and Jerami Grant are ready to help Simons carry the team.

Indiana Pacers vs Portland Trail Blazers preview

The Indiana Pacers' offense has been the biggest reason they’ve been on a roll since January. Since the start of the year, they are 12-2. Indy’s only losses were to the Cleveland Cavaliers 127-117 in mid-January and 140-110 to the San Antonio Spurs in Paris last month.

If Tyrese Haliburton can continue to get his teammates involved and the Pacers push the tempo, they will be tough to beat.

The Portland Trail Blazers' resurgence have been based on their strong rebounding, consistent execution of plays and few errors. During their 8-1 stretch, they beat opponents in those departments. Even if they have an off-shooting night, the Blazers could compete if they sustain their output.

Portland’s balanced attack will again be key in keeping up with Indiana’s high-octane offense. If multiple players continue to hit double-digit scoring, they will have a good chance of tying the season series.
