Our Pick
Depth, control, and versatility are what helped the Pacers to their blowout victory in the first round of play. Indiana received contributions across the board and it helped power them to victory. Washington on the other hand, fell exceedingly short as nobody could support their stars. While the Pacers don’t have a singular brilliant defender, their defensive acumen as a group should be more than enough.

Our Pick
Domantas Sabonis is going to face an energetic frontcourt in the Wizards’ Robin Lopez, Alex Len, and Daniel Gafford. But it’s unlikely to matter, especially considering Sabonis collected 21 rebounds against Charlotte’s group including Washington, Biyombo, and Zeller. He’ll have plenty of opportunities on the glass as well, seeing as he’s one of Indiana’s only two true available big men.

Our Pick
Beal had a difficult night in his last match against the Celtics, posting just 22 points on 10 of 25 shooting from the field. But the Eastern Conference scoring leader is still coming off of a season where he averaged 31.3, and 38.0 points per game against the Pacers this season.

B. Beal Over 31.5 (-112) Bet Now

Bet of the Evening – R. Westbrook PTS+REBS+ASTS Over/Under

Our Pick
It’s a credit to the expectations of Russell Westbrook that he’s expected to clear 52.5. In fact, he’s been averaging a combined total of 56.2 over his last five games. But he was well under in his loss to the Celtics, posting just 39. It’s not the boards and assists, but the scoring that needs to jump for him to clear 52.5. On his efficiency, it’s tough to see it happening.
