Nets @ 76ers – NBA: Game at a Glance

- Philadelphia 30-16 overall: -5.0 (bet365)

The Brooklyn Nets will enter the game with an overall record of 29-17 on the season. Since losing Kevin Durant, the team has gone just 2-4. They have a couple of decent wins over that span of games, however, this is a team that lost to San Antonio last week. Brooklyn is a shaky bet right now and going forward for quite some time.
The Philadelphia 76ers are 30-16 on the season. This is a team that has gone 18-4 over roughly the last month and a half. At -200 (1/2) to win against the Nets, they have to be considered good value.
Philadelphia 76ers: Recent Form Alert
- Philadelphia 76ers were 12-12 (December 8th, 2022)
- Heading into this game they are 30-16
- Since December 8th, Philly is 18-4
Joel Embiid is questionable to start the day due to a foot injury. But Philadelphia is playing from home against a Brooklyn team without their top star. Our recommendation is to stick with Philly: if Embiid’s playing status improves that would be great but bettors need not hinge their actions on whether he plays or not due to Brooklyn’s struggles.
