Indiana Pacers vs Toronto Raptors preview: Start time, where to watch, injury report, betting odds November 22
The Indiana Pacers host the Toronto Raptors on Wednesday night in a clash between two teams near the middle of the Eastern Conference. The Raptors are 6-8 while the Pacers are 8-5.
Both teams played an In-Season Tournament game on Tuesday night and had to travel to Indianapolis afterwards, so expect some tired legs — both teams are also playing their third game in four nights.

Pacers vs Raptors Injury Report
Neither team has submitted an injury report as of Wednesday morning since both are on the second night of a back-to-back. Andrew Nembhard was out for Indiana on Tuesday while Christian Koloko and Thaddeus Young were out for Toronto. Both teams were without their two-way contract players yesterday.
Key Matchup
Scottie Barnes vs Aaron Nesmith: Nesmith moved into the starting five for Indiana on Tuesday, and if that continues, he will likely be tasked with slowing down Barnes at times on Wednesday.
Entering Tuesday, the third-year forward for Toronto was averaging 20.1 points, 8.9 rebounds, and 6.0 assists per game this season while knocking down 47.8% of his shots. He's a fantastic player. Nesmith will have to slow him down and make open jumpers if the Pacers want to cruise to a win.
