The Bulls and Pacers meet in a Presidents Day clash that sees the Bulls trying to get back to their winning ways against the spread (ATS), and the Pacers trying to string together a three-game ATS winning streak.
The Pacers have a woeful 6-9 ATS home record, but they have won their last two games — both road games — by an average of 14.0 points per game.
The Bulls were blown out by 19 points in their last game, a matchup with the Clippers in which they were 7.5-point underdogs.
This all adds up to the sound of a game that the Pacers should win by quite a bit. But our PRO Report shows that sharps are looking at it as one in which the Bulls show nice value as road dogs.
