Knicks vs Pacers: Predicted Lineup

Indiana Pacers:

Injuries have been a major concern for the pacers. Most of their key players are injured and were, therefore sidelined for their preseason campaign opener. Starters Caris LeVert, Edmond Sumner, and T.J. Warren missed out on the last game but the management, as well as the fans, will hope for them to return before the regular season. However, they are likely t remain unavailable at the start of the regular season. Besides the injuries, some players have joined the squad to fill the spots. Furthermore, Rick Carlisle will be back as the head coach.

G – Brogdon, G – TJ McConnell, F – Domantas Sabonis, – J Holiday, C – Myles Turner.

New York Knicks:

Knicks have started their preseason with a superb win over the Pacers. They will need to keep up their performance and gain the confidence required for the upcoming regular season. No big contracts have been made this season and they have resigned Derrick Rose, Nerlens Noel, and Alec Burks. With their key player, Julius Randle’s not so good form Knicks’ strong point still remains the defense. Despite this, they are definitely looking a sharp side and will give a tough fight this time as well.

G – Kemba Walker, G – Fournier, F – J. Randle; – RJ Barrett, C – Nerlens Noel

Predictions

Indiana Pacers will host Knicks at their home game after their rather unwanted edgy start to their preseason campaign. But with Domantas Sabonis leading from the front, they will bounce back stronger than ever. Barring any buzzer-beaters, Knicks is expected to win a tight and exciting face-off. With so many injured players Pacers might be worth taking a chance on. Contrary to how exceptionally good Domantas Sabonis is, the Knicks have got depth. Considering the last season’s campaign they are probably going to dominate the contest. But Basketball is a game of surprise and confidence. If the players are confident enough they can make miracles happen on the court. Therefore, Pacers cannot be underestimated either.
