Despite the challenges facing the Pacers, the Warriors appear to be in good shape, with all key players expected to be available. Head coach Steve Kerr managed to rest his starters during the fourth quarter of last night’s game, ensuring that star player Stephen Curry enters tonight’s matchup fresh and ready to lead the charge.

Analysts are bullish on the Warriors’ chances, citing their stellar performance on the road trip thus far. With each game seemingly resulting in a win and covering the spread, the Warriors are exuding confidence and momentum. While some may attribute the Pacers’ potential struggles to the absence of key players, such narratives are often unpredictable in the NBA.

Despite the uncertainty surrounding Haliburton’s availability, the Pacers remain a formidable opponent, capable of springing surprises on any given night. However, with the Warriors playing exceptional basketball recently, we lean toward the visitors.
