Why the 76ers can cover
On Sunday, the 76ers snuck past Indiana with a 118-114 win in which Philly can attribute much of its success to Tyrese Maxey, who had 45 points, four boards and four assists. The 76ers also smashed the offensive glass and finished the game with 20 offensive rebounds, which is the most they’ve posted since back in November of 2023.
In addition to Maxey averaging 31.3 points, four other Sixers are putting up double-figures. Kelly Oubre Jr. is averaging 21 points, while veteran Kyle Lowry is averaging 11 points with a blistering 61.5% from downtown. Meanwhile, center Andre Drummond is putting up a double-double with 10 points and 13 rebounds per game. Last year, the Sixers went 51-38 ATS in the regular and postseason, with their 57.3% cover rate being the third-best in the NBA. See which team to pick here.
Why the Pistons can cover
Meanwhile, Detroit can take solace in the fact that the 76ers remain without their two best players in Joel Embiid and Paul George, both of whom are battling knee injuries. With those absences, Philadelphia ranks in the bottom five in offensive rating, field goal percentage and three-point percentage. While Detroit played on Monday, and the Sixers haven’t played since Sunday, the Pistons are a strong 12-8 ATS when at a rest disadvantage since the start of last season.
Detroit is led by former No. 1 overall pick Cade Cunningham, who is averaging 26.5 points, 7.5 assists and 5.8 rebounds. Top-five pick, Jaden Ivey, is also putting up over 20 points per game, while Detroit’s trio of veteran additions have brought stability to the franchise. Tim Hardaway Jr., Tobias Harris and Malik Beasley are all averaging over 10 points per game. See which team to pick here.
