The Pacers are 1-5 ATS in their last six games following an ATS win. Indiana is 4-1 ATS in its last five road games.

The Rockets are 0-5 ATS in their last five home games. The under is 6-0 in the last six meetings.
Prediction:
Houston is a mess right now and is on a back-to-back, but didn’t have long travel as it remains in-state. You’d expect the Rockets to come around at some point and this is a spot against a Pacers team they already defeated by four on the road last week. I’m going with the Rockets here as they are definitely due to win a home game.
