The current betting odds have the 76ers listed as a 5 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The 76ers started the season in very bad shape and have had to deal with a lot of injuries to some of their key players. They have been getting a lot healthier over the last few weeks though and they have been starting to turn things around now. They are getting on a roll and they have been a good team on their home court this year. With both Embiid and Harden finally back doing what they were last season, they have been a tough team to beat lately. The Kings have really improved a lot from what they were last season and they are going to be a competitive team this year but they haven't been playing great lately, slipping in their games and they haven't been a great team on the road either. With the 76ers at home here and starting to play a lot better with their key players back and healthy, it is hard to fade this 76ers team as they seem to be making a run now trying to get back in a top spot in the Eastern Conference. The best way to place a bet here is on the 76ers to cover the spread in this game and keep on rolling.

“We have to give the Knicks a lot of credit. They kicked our behind tonight. We didn’t have an answer for Julius. He kind of had his way with us. We didn’t execute anything. Brunson had a good game. RJ had a good game. Mitchell Robinson was a monster on the boards.” - Mike Brown after his team’s loss against the Knicks in their game on Sunday.

 

 

“The ball just found me. I thought we moved the ball well all night and the ball just found me.” - Joel Embiid after their win against the Hornets in their game on Sunday.
