Will the Pelicans and Pacers deliver an electrifying performance on July 19, 2025, at 01:00? The answer is a hopeful yes. Both teams have electrifying players, with New Orleans boasting a formidable lineup led by its star player and likely future MVP, and an elite center in Jonas Valančiūnas. Meanwhile, Indiana has a strong defensive presence and a versatile roster. The battle for the fourth playoff spot in the Eastern Conference was intense and challenging last season, so we expect the same level of competition in the upcoming season.
As usual, protecting home court seems to be more valuable than any other factor. But keep in mind that the Pacers will try to impose their pace and disrupt the Pelicans’ offensive rhythm.
