Kyrie Irving to Record 8+ Assists (+180)
It's no secret that Kyrie Irving is playing injured right now, so some of his explosiveness might be gone. But, in Luka's absence he is expected to take over the point guard duties completely as the Mavs simply don't have anyone else to rely on for that part of their game. Even with Doncic in the line-up, the last time Kyrie faced the Pacers he finished with 9 assists, so there's a pretty decent chance of him getting to that number in tonight's game as well. Indiana's defense is pretty vulnerable at the moment, be it from three-point land or from inside the paint. They're 25th in opponent points in the paint over their last 3 games, allowing 58.7 a night. From three-point land opponents are knocking down 37.7% of attempts during that stretch, so Kyrie has a pretty simple task at hand here. Find your teammates in open spots and good things will happen.
