Indiana Pacers vs Dallas Mavericks Prediction: Who will get their third win of the summer tournament?

Indiana and Dallas approach the match with a 2:1 balance. Who will get their third win of the summer tournament?

Indiana Pacers

At the start of the tournament in Las Vegas, the Pacers secured two solid wins against Washington (91:83) and Orlando (108:85). But then Indiana stumbled against Oklahoma. Against the Thunder, Indianapolis team leaders Andrew Nembhard, Benedict Maturin, and Justin Jackson were not on the court. The result was an unconvincing offensive performance and an 87:98 defeat. Indiana's core trio will likely be on the floor against Dallas, so the team's chances of success in the upcoming game are great.

Dallas Mavericks

Mavericks started the competition in Las Vegas with a match against the same Oklahoma. Also, they failed to cope with a powerful opponent by the standards of the Summer League - 80:91. Then the team, led in Vegas by Jared Dudley, beat Philadelphia (111:103) and, in a dramatic game with overtime, was stronger than Golden State - 98:96 (90:90).

In the two victorious games, which is quite expected, the most productive in Dallas was Jaden Hardy - 24 points in the game against Philadelphia and 21 against GSW.

Expert Betting Tips

In the last game against Oklahoma, Indiana played without all its leaders. In the game against Dallas, they will surely return to the floor, meaning the Pacers are rightly seen as favorites. Indiana will likely confirm that status. Dallas has been unconvincing on defense in their three games, allowing more than 90 points in all of their games. Indiana's core trio of Maturin, Jackson, and Nembhard will take advantage of their opponent's weaknesses in their halfcourt.
