Game review

What happened

The 76ers beat the Pacers 114–109 on the road. Tyrese Maxey led them with 27 points and 5 rebounds, and Joel Embiid added 21. For the Pacers, Pascal Siakam had 26 points and 11 rebounds.

What the model got right

The model gave the 76ers a 68% chance on the road, mainly because of their higher team-strength rating (95.5 to 86.7), and they won by 5. Tyrese Haliburton and Ivica Zubac for the Pacers both missed the game, as the preview expected.

What didn't work

Not much went against the model in this one. Pascal Siakam's 26 points for the Pacers weren't enough to change the result.

Why

The result fits what the model leaned on, the team-strength rating. One win doesn't prove the model right: at 68%, about 3 in 10 games like this go the other way, and every result stays on our record.
