LeBron James is a 76er now, alongside Joel Embiid, Tyrese Maxey and Jaylen Brown. Philadelphia is 3-1, and Maxey is averaging 28.8 points.<\/strong> Indiana has Tyrese Haliburton back from the Achilles tear that kept him out last season, but he’s questionable tonight with tightness in his left hamstring.<\/p>\n

That makes the 76ers vs Pacers game one of the bigger draws on Wednesday’s card, and it comes with history that favours the visitors, because Philadelphia won all four meetings last season, two of them in Indianapolis. Indiana is 2-2.<\/p>\n\n\n

76ers vs Pacers odds<\/h2>\n

We couldn’t find a Canadian price for this game when we published. American odds aren’t a fair guide to what’s on offer here. Our NBA betting<\/a> hub lists who’s licensed where.<\/p>\n\n\n

Philadelphia’s stars have mostly been on the floor together<\/h2>\n

The Sixers opened with a 106-100 win in New York, then beat Cleveland 114-106 and Milwaukee 127-116 at home. Embiid had 28 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists against the Bucks. Sunday brought a 106-93 home loss to Detroit, with Embiid absent.<\/p>\n

James has scored 14, 17 and 18. He didn’t play in Saturday’s win over Milwaukee, and he isn’t on the injury report now. Brown has been steady too, between 16 and 27 points every night.<\/p>\n

Rates from last season, when Indiana played without Haliburton. That explains most of the 7.6-point gap in net rating.<\/p>\n

Indiana is short of bodies around Haliburton and Siakam<\/h2>\n

The Pacers won 123-120 in New Orleans, lost 121-105 at home to Dallas, won 136-109 in Brooklyn and lost 110-102 in Milwaukee on Monday. Pascal Siakam averages 23.5 points, and Haliburton has had 12, 10 and nine assists in three of his four games.<\/p>\n

The list is long. Ivica Zubac (ankle) and T.J. McConnell (hamstring) are out, Ben Sheppard is having knee surgery, and Johnny Furphy tore his ACL. Andrew Nembhard, the Canadian guard, is questionable with a neck problem after missing Monday.<\/p>\n

Players to watch<\/h2>\n

Tyrese Maxey, Philadelphia.<\/strong> Twenty-six or more in all four games, including 32 against Cleveland.<\/p>\n

Andrew Nembhard, Indiana.<\/strong> Eighteen points and nine assists on opening night. If he plays, he takes some of the ball-handling off Haliburton.<\/p>\n\n\n

Score prediction<\/h2>\n

76ers 117-111 Pacers.<\/strong> Last season’s ratings make Philadelphia about a five-point favourite, even after Indiana’s home court. Those numbers describe a Pacers team without Haliburton, which flatters the 76ers. Indiana is also without Zubac and McConnell tonight, though, so we’ve ended up close to them.<\/p>\n

76ers vs Pacers prediction<\/h2>\n

Indiana has the home floor and Siakam in form. Philadelphia has four players who can each carry a night, and the Pacers are missing their centre.<\/p>\n

Our pick: Philadelphia to win, the 76ers at -3.5 or shorter, and the over if the total sits at 224.5 or lower.<\/strong> Both clubs averaged more than 102 possessions a game last season.<\/p>\n

Our player prop is Tyrese Maxey over 23.5 points. He has scored 26 or more in all four games. Books had his line at 23.5 or 24.5 on Covers’ NBA prop board at 6:55 a.m. ET, so take the 23.5 where you find it.<\/p>\n

Our NBA games tonight<\/a> page carries the rest of Wednesday’s games, with tip-off times and absences.<\/p>\n\n

What time is 76ers vs Pacers?<\/strong>

Tip-off is 7:00pm ET on Wednesday 28 October 2026 at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, Indianapolis.<\/p><\/div>

Where can I watch 76ers vs Pacers in Canada?<\/strong>

It wasn’t on a Canadian network’s schedule when we looked, so NBA League Pass is the likeliest way to watch it here.<\/p><\/div>

Is LeBron James playing for the 76ers tonight?<\/strong>

He isn’t on the injury report. He has played three of Philadelphia’s four games, missing only Saturday’s win over Milwaukee.<\/p><\/div>

Is Tyrese Haliburton playing against Philadelphia?<\/strong>

He’s questionable with left hamstring tightness, so watch for an update before tip-off.<\/p><\/div>

What is our 76ers vs Pacers prediction?<\/strong>

76ers 117-111. We back Philadelphia to win, at -3.5 or shorter, and the over at 224.5 or lower.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n
