On the other hand, Indiana are hoping to get a big road win as they try to lock up their spots in the playoffs and if the standings remain the same, they will be battling Toronto in the first round.
In the Eastern conference, the top six teams have already secured their places in the post-season, with the Cleveland Cavaliers on top with a 3.5-game advantage over the Raptors.
With only a few games remaining for Toronto, it will be extremely difficult for them to chase the top spot which gives them a lock in second place.
Way down below are the Pacers who are seventh at the moment and are only a half a game ahead of the Detroit Pistons who are eighth in the East.
Both the Pacers and Pistons are trying to secure their playoff spots and both are also aiming for the seventh spot in the East to try and avoid facing Cleveland in the first round.
A win for Indiana against the Raptors greatly helps them add some breathing room with them and Detroit, while it also helps them in getting a mental advantage over the Raptors if they do end up meeting in the post-season.
While Toronto may rest some players in preparation for the post-season, expect the Pacers to be at full strength as they try to get the victory.
