Point Spread: -5.00 | -108.00 Philadelphia (Home)
Result: Win
There are a few reasons I like Philly here other than being at home -- which matters little these days but travel does play a part even though most arena's dont have many fans. Joel Embiid will play after sitting out the weekend. Seth Curry will play for the first time in a couple of weeks, and the Sixers are 7-1 when he does take the court this year. Its also a playoff revenge game for Philly as they got swept back in the august playoffs. Meanwhile, Boston is without superstar Jayson Tatum still in COVID protocols and surely will keep the minutes limited of Kemba Walker after he debuted Sunday off knee surgery.
Take the 76ers here at home tonight!
