What to Know

The Indiana Pacers might have tired legs after a game yesterday as they head on the road against the Detroit Pistons at 8 p.m. ET Feb. 11 at Little Caesars Arena. Detroit will be strutting in after a win while the Pacers will be stumbling in from a defeat.

Indiana came up short against the Brooklyn Nets on Wednesday, falling 104-94. Indiana was down 82-62 at the end of the third quarter, which was just too much to recover from. Power forward Domantas Sabonis (18 points) was the top scorer for Indiana.

Meanwhile, Detroit strolled past Brooklyn with points to spare on Tuesday, taking the contest 122-111. It was another big night for the Pistons' small forward Jerami Grant, who had 32 points along with five rebounds.

Barring any buzzer beaters, the Pacers are expected to win a tight contest on Thursday. Now might not be the best time to take Indiana against the spread since they've let down bettors for the past four consecutive games.

Indiana is now 12-13 while Detroit sits at 6-18. Detroit is 0-5 after wins this year, and Indiana is 6-6 after losses.
