Lakers vs. Pacers predictions
After back-to-back 30-point games, Davis is questionable for Friday's rematch against the Pacers. If he plays, then there is no reason to fade him.
The Pac ers allow the second-most points per game. Davis is averaging 24.7 points per game, and nothing has changed between Sunday and Friday to suggest that he won't be able to score over his season average against the Pacers again.
Make sure you shop around for this prop. FanDuel currently has the total set at 26.5 with a price of -118. Since those odds are barely better than what DraftKings is offering, take the lower point total for a slightly worse price. DraftKings is the best place to play right now, as some of our best sports betting sites have the odds on the Over as low as -140.
In Sunday's loss, Siakam recorded just two assists. But he also attempted a season-high 29 shots in that game, so he didn't have many assist opportunities. Friday, he will most likely attempt fewer shots, which should result in him assisting his teammates more.
Siakam is averaging 4.5 assists per game this season, an d he just recorded five during the Pacers' loss to the Chicago Bulls. This month, he's averaging just 3.3 assists per game, down from 4.3 last month, but in a high-scoring game against the team allowing the fourth-most assists per game, Siakam is worth a play at the right price.
At the moment, Caesars is offering the best price at -104. However, several of our best sports betting apps have the price listed at -105, so be sure to shop around before deciding where to wager, as lines may change and become more favorable at different sportsbooks.

On Sunday, Haliburton scored just 12 points, despite the Pacers scoring 145. Because of that, there is a legitimate reason to be concerned about him on Friday. However, seeing this Lakers defense twice in a week will help Haliburton from deep.
The Lakers still rank 21st in the league in 3-point percentage allowed. They're also allowing the third-most points off 3-pointers this season. Though Haliburton has been very up-and-down throughout March, he is averaging 7.3 three-point attempts per game.
The price for this prop ranges from -105 to -113. With this game being played in Indiana, the price should be closer to -115. So to get this at -105 provides great value.
