Indiana Pacers vs Los Angeles Lakers Preview, Predictions and Odds| March 24 2024

Los Angeles Lakers

The Indiana Pacers (40-31) travel to the Los Angeles Lakers (38-32) for a Sunday night game. This should be a comfortable win for the Lakers. Even with Davis and James listed as questionable, most expect them to be able to handle business against the Pacers. However, the Pacers are trying to not only maintain their seating but also show improved play on the court.

Therefore, could you see Indiana stealing a game from Los Angeles at the cryto.com Arena tonight?

Key Stats

Indiana Pacers 

Indiana Pacers

Indiana is led by Tyrese Halliburton. Halliburton is averaging 20.5 points per game. Additionally, he offers 11.2 assists per game. But as mentioned, he’s looking to get himself going against what can be a porous Los Angeles Lakers defense. Furthermore, Myles Turner is someone to watch for. He averages 17.0 points per game as well as 7.0 rebounds per game for the Anna Pacers. Long story short, if Indiana is going to grab a win on the road, both of these players need to have good games.

Los Angeles Lakers 

Los Angeles Lakers  

Los Angeles is playing with something of a renewed spirit. However, they look either really good or they look nothing like a playoff contender, and there is very little in between. It’s hard to predict what you get from this Los Angeles Lakers team night in and night out. However, assuming LeBron James and Anthony Davis are good to go, you would expect them to be able to handle business against the Indiana Pacers.

James averages 25.4 points per game as well as 8.0 rebounds per game. Davis offers 24.4 points per game as well as 12.4 rebounds per game. But the other person to watch for is D’Angelo Russell. Russell is averaging 20.2 points per game over his last 10 games. Keeping him on a consistent scoring streak could lead to potential playoff success.

Injury Report

Indiana Pacers 

  • James Johnson – GTD
  • Isaiah Wong – GTD

Los Angeles Lakers 

  • LeBron James – GTD
  • Anthony Davis – GTD
  • Jalen Hood-Schifino – OFS
  • Taurean Prince – GTD

Game Prediction

The Indiana Pacers are not expected to win this game and are more likely to fall below .500 than anything else. But a win against this Lakers team could get them back on track. However, the overall limitations, particularly on offense, are worrisome. They don’t have the horses needed to take advantage of what can be a bad Lakers defense. Therefore, I am sticking with the Los Angeles Lakers to defend home court and cruise to a comfortable win while covering the spread.

Final Pick

Los Angeles Lakers -3
