Indiana Pacers to beat Cleveland Cavaliers –

This series looked like one of the most evenly-matched on paper before the playoffs started, and that’s proven to be the case as it’s currently tied 2-2.

Indiana lost Game 4 104-100 on Sunday night, squandering the lead a couple of times late on, but they’ve been the more consistent team over the four games so far and are worth backing at a good price on Wednesday.

The Pacers won the first game of the series by 18 points in Cleveland, and their two losses since have come by margins of just three and four points.

Toronto Raptors to beat Washington Wizards –

The Wizards have tied the series by winning back-to-back games on their own court, but it’s unlikely that they take the lead when they return to Toronto for Game 5.

The Raptors have won 36 games and lost just seven at home this season including the playoffs, while Washington have an away record of 20 wins and 23 defeats.

Star shooting guard DeMar DeRozan has averaged 28 points per game this series, despite not really being at his best so far, and his scoring should lead the Raptors to an important victory here.

Utah Jazz to beat Oklahoma City Thunder –

The Jazz won 113-96 in Utah on Monday night – their third successive victory – and they should close out the series when they head back to Oklahoma City on Wednesday.

Utah have been on a roll since the beginning of March, winning six of their last seven games in the regular season and now three out of four in the playoffs.

The Thunder have had no answer to rookie guard Donovan Mitchell, who has averaged 27.5 points per game in his first playoff series, while OKC’s Russell Westbrook has more turnovers than assists in his last two games.
