Why the 76ers can cover
Philadelphia is one of the hottest teams in the NBA right now, riding a five-game winning streak coming into this matchup. The 76ers are 10-1 in their last 11 home games following a 104-101 overtime win against Toronto on Monday, as Joel Embiid poured in 28 points and grabbed 11 rebounds. Tobias Harris added 21 points and knocked down five 3-pointers in a 7-of-9 shooting performance.
Harris has been hot during this streak, making multiple 3-pointers in six consecutive games. Detroit lost star guard Cade Cunningham to a season-ending injury and has dropped six of its last seven contests. Philadelphia has dominated Detroit in recent years, going 11-2 in the last 13 meetings and covering the spread in 13 of the last 18 games.
Why the Pistons can cover
Detroit might be losing games outright, but it has been undervalued in the betting market. The Pistons have covered the spread in seven of their last eight road games, including an overtime win at Charlotte last Wednesday. They also pulled off an upset at Miami as 7.5-point underdogs two weeks ago, rolling to a 116-96 win.
Guard Jaden Ivey scored a career-high 30 points in Tuesday’s loss to Utah, while fellow rookie Jalen Duren had a double-double with 15 points and 14 rebounds. Veteran forward Bojan Bogdanovic leads Detroit with 21.1 points and 3.5 rebounds per game. Philadelphia is dealing with a key injury of its own, as guard Tyrese Maxey will remain sidelined on Wednesday due to a foot injury.
