Indiana Pacers vs. Philadelphia 76ers bottom line: If you were curious how Embiid and George would fit this new version of the 76ers, built around Maxey, the match versus the Lakers perhaps offered an inkling of concern.
As the Spurs showed in their dismantling of LA, a young, physical, athletic team can have its way with the Lakers, but the 76ers weren’t able to capitalize, even with the two stars who love to live in the paint.
It’s a diminutive sample size, but long-term, it’s hard to imagine this is the team the franchise wants to move forward with around Tyrese.

Pacers 76ers Free Pick: Pacers +7
Here is my Pacers 76ers free pick. Pascal Siakam is doing it all for Indy, and while he won’t likely get a nod to the All-Star game, his numbers and performance through the quarter season are more than deserving.
Rick Carlisle is pulling out every possible tweak imaginable and while it might sound insane this team does feel much better than their record. Heatlh was an issue early but with more players returning keep an eye on whether they move up the standings.
Despite all the rest this week, the 76ers have five players listed on the injury report, including Embiid, who will be a game-time decision (knee). The more concerning player who might miss the match is Maxey, who is fighting an illness.
Indy also has six players listed on the injury report, but their key players are healthy, and given their recent uptick in play, I’ll take the points and Indy to keep this one close.
