The Toronto Raptors are an average offensive team this season as they are currently 16th in the NBA with 112.3 points per game. They are getting to the free-throw line 24.2 times per game to ignite the offense, but are not playing too well without Siakam in the lineup to initiate the offense. Shooting guard Fred VanVleet is doing all he can as he is averaging 18.4 points, 3.7 rebounds, 6.8 assists, 0.7 blocks, and 2.3 steals per game in 36.5 minutes thus far.
Their defense has been doing well as they are eighth in the league with 108.7 points and holding teams to 35.5 percent from beyond the arc. Defensively, they need to improve as they are the second-worst at just 6.1 steals per game so far and need to figure out how to get some stops.
The Indiana Pacers are dominating on the offensive side of the game as they are all the way at third in the league with 117.3 points per game this season. A huge reason is that they are an unselfish team that is finding the open man as they are fourth in the NBA with 28.4 assists thus far. Point guard Tyrese Haliburton is dominating as he is shooting the basketball extremely well as he has shooting splits of 50.6/45.3/87.8 while averaging 21.6 points, 9.9 assists, 4.6 rebounds, and 1.8 steals per game thus far.
They have the fourth-worst defense this season with 118.4 points per game thus far and need to improve. They cannot stop the opposing three-point shooters as they are giving up 41.1 percent from beyond the arc. However, down low they are doing well as they rank third in basketball with 6.6 blocks per game up to this point.

Toronto Raptors vs. Indiana Pacers Best Pick:
The Raptors are not scoring too well in the first half of games as they are averaging 55.2 points in the first two quarters of the game.
Without Pascal Siakam available, they are going to struggle. Myles Turner down low is going to limit the second-chance opportunities and make the under the better play.

Toronto Raptors vs. Indiana Pacers Final Prediction
The Toronto Raptors are the overall the better team in this game and VanVleet should limit what the backcourt of Indiana can really do here.
