Take Memphis to win, but do not treat a win and a wide margin as the same conclusion.

Cam Spencer's 9.33 assists per game and 50% three-point shooting over his recent 3 games can turn Memphis's outside and rebounding edge into offense. He also averages 5 assists for the season and has a 7 assist-to-turnover ratio over those recent 3 games. Andrew Nembhard is Indiana's counter: over his recent 2 games, he has averaged 22.5 points and 6.5 assists while shooting 50% from three. If Nembhard sustains that creation and scoring, Memphis's handicap cover is less secure; Indiana's low recent three-point percentage and rebounding deficit can limit that route.
Memphis's profile over its last 5 games is 125.4 points, 48.8 rebounds and 43.65% from three. Each tops Indiana's 106 points, 41.6 rebounds and 31.58% from three over its last 5 games, giving the home side a clear offensive route. Memphis's 11.2 offensive rebounds per game also create extra chances. Indiana countered with 121.5 points per game over its last 4 away games, so Memphis must sustain its edge while limiting the visitors.
Indiana's clearest constraint is its 106 points per game and 31.58% three-point shooting over its last 5 games. Memphis allowed 112 points per game over the same span and averaged 48.8 rebounds, a combination that can make the Pacers' outside-shooting slump costly. Still, Indiana scored 121.5 points per game over its last 4 away games, leaving a route to an offensive rebound. Andrew Nembhard, with 22.5 points and 6.5 assists per game over his recent 2 games, must lead it; that record alone does not erase Memphis's defensive and rebounding edge.
Memphis went 4-1 in 5 meetings from 2024-10-15 to 2026-03-02, averaging 124.4 points and a 9.8-point margin; combined scoring averaged 239. That history supports a Memphis win and a high-scoring outlook, but its window differs from the teams' current form. Indiana has averaged 106 points over its last 5 games, yet 121.5 over its last 4 away games. Whether the old scoring pattern repeats depends on the Pacers recovering that road offense.
