Indiana Pacers vs Utah Jazz preview

Per StatMuse, the Indiana Pacers ranked second in offensive rating in January, just behind the Cleveland Cavaliers. Led by Tyrese Haliburton, they continued their strong performance into February with a win against the Hawks and aim to maintain that momentum when they face the Jazz.

Meanwhile, the Utah Jazz pulled off an upset on Saturday against the Magic. Coach Will Hardy’s defense held Orlando star forward Paolo Banchero to nine points. Utah isn’t likely to beat the Pacers by outscoring them, making it crucial for them to deliver another superb defensive performance. The Jazz's communication and execution on defense must be cohesive and crisp.

Newly named All-Star Pascal Siakam is averaging 23.8 points on 59.7% efficiency in his last five games. Against Utah’s undermanned roster, he could blow past his 20.5 (O/U) points prop.

Lauri Markkanen has lost his shooting touch in his last five games, averaging 14.8 PPG on 39.2% efficiency. The Pacers are not known for their defense, but they can still prevent the former All-Star from topping his 19.5 (O/U) points prop.
