Warriors vs. Pacers Game Info
Golden State Warriors (17-15, 6-9 Away) vs. Indiana Pacers (15-14, 7-9 Home)
Date: Tuesday, Feb. 23, 2021
Time: 7:30 p.m. EST
Venue: Bankers Life Fieldhouse — Indianapolis, Ind.
Coverage: ESPN
This will be the second and final meeting between these two teams this season. The Pacers won the first matchup by 9 points on the road, so the Warriors will look to split the meeting this year. Both teams come into the game with a clean injury report as of this morning, with the only players out being the long-term absentees we have been used to.
The Warriors had a hot stretch, but they have struggled lately. They have lost two of their last three games, and all have been against less-than-stellar competition: Magic, Hornets, Knicks. Stephen Curry missed the game against the Hornets with an ankle injury, but he returned for their win against the Knicks. He has averaged 34.6 points during February, making a case for the hottest shooting hand in the league right now.
The Pacers are coming off back-to-back overtime games, losing to the Bulls and defeating the Timberwolves. Their most dangerous player continues to be Domantas Sabonis. He is a 20-10 player who also has the vision to average 5.7 assists. The offense often floats through him, and he is capable of setting up his teammates for open looks.

Warriors vs. Pacers Prediction
The biggest mismatch in this game is in the frontcourt. The Pacers very clearly have the advantage, featuring Sabonis and Myles Turner. They are both capable of controlling the paint, hitting jump shots and running the floor against Golden State. With this advantage, they should sweep the short two-game regular-season series while also covering this spread.
Prediction: Pacers -1.5
