The Pacers won 7 of 8 before losing at Houston on Friday and failed to inspire at home in a loss to Milwaukee the next night.
Indiana lost Brogdon (back) and McConnell (groin) during Friday’s game and missed the pair’s offense end Saturday as the Pacers shot 32% from the floor in a 102-83 loss.
The Nets have their own injury concerns with Kyrie sitting out Saturday’s 117-111 win at Chicago to rest a shoulder injury.
Best to wait on Kyrie’s status, but trends favor the Pacers.
OUR PICK – Indiana +4.5
