Command Analysis

Indiana Pacers

Current form
The Pacers are aiming to qualify for the playoffs, as Cleveland, Boston and New York have already completed their goal in the main tournament. The team is in fourth place in the Eastern Conference and is trying to break away from Detroit.
Indiana held its last match against the leader of the Oklahoma West, where it could not resist the opponent's pressure (111:132). The Thunder started to put pressure from the first minutes of the match and gave the opponent only the last quarter. This defeat is a good lesson for Rick Carlisle's players, and the defense needs to draw conclusions. The Pacers will play their next match at home against Sacramento, so the hosts intend to rehabilitate themselves for their defeat by the Thunder.
Disqualifications and injuries
Isaah Jackson and Benedikt Mathurin will not play in the next match due to injuries.
Interesting facts for betting

Approximate composition: Nesmith-Siakim, Turner-Nembhard, Haliburton.

Sacramento Kings

Current form
The Kings were going pretty well, but difficulties have started lately, which immediately affected the standings. The team ended up in tenth place, but Phoenix is already on its heels.
Sacramento has managed to lose to Milwaukee (108:114), Boston (95:113), Oklahoma (105:121) and Orlando (91:121) in the last five matches. Of course, we weren't particularly lucky with our rivals, but we could have done better, especially since the club had the best team on the floor in the last meeting. The Kings are close to being outside the top 10 of the West, respectively, Douglas Christie and the company face the task of correcting the current situation.
Disqualifications and injuries
Devin Carter won't be playing on the floor due to health problems.
Interesting facts for betting

This season, Indiana embodies stability and coherence. The team is among the leaders of the East and is ready to compete for a place in the playoffs. The Pacers have one of the best home wins in the Eastern Conference, so the opponent wasn't particularly lucky.
Sacramento has forced itself into a situation where it needs to take risks, go all-in and score points if the team wants to continue fighting in the playoffs. The Kings are terrible on the road, but they don't have much choice right now. We assume that the kings will play to the maximum and at least avoid defeat.
Our betting tip is a victory for Sacramento, taking into account the handicap (+7) points in 1.72
Bet on the total
The last face-to-face meetings between these rivals were held in an attacking manner. There is a chance that history will repeat itself, because Indiana needs a win to get closer to a playoff berth, and it is extremely important for Sacramento to stay in the top ten of the West, so no one will feel sorry for each other. We expect a productive confrontation.
