Why the 76ers can cover
The 76ers fell 111-99 to the Knicks on Tuesday in Joel Embiid’s season debut. He had 13 points in 26 minutes, while Paul George led the way by shooting 7-for-11 from downtown and dropping a double-double on 29 points and 10 rebounds. Rookie Jared McCain continued his stellar play as he had 23 points off the bench and has scored at least 18 points in three straight games.
McCain is in line for more playing time as Joel Embiid has already said he won’t play back-to-backs, although Philadelphia has yet to release its injury report, while Tyrese Maxey (hamstring) remains out. The Sixers still have four other players averaging in double-figures and another two averaging at least 9.2 points. Meanwhile, Cleveland has dropped back-to-back games ATS, and its defense ranks 25th in 3-point percentage allowed, which is something that shooters like George, Eric Gordon and Kyle Lowry can exploit. The Sixers could also face a Cavs squad without Jarrett Allen (leg) who is questionable, while Max Strus (ankle) remains out. See which team to pick here.
Why the Cavaliers can cover
Meanwhile, the Cavaliers put another one in the bag on Monday to keep their perfect season alive as they secured a 119-113 victory over the Bulls. The Cavs can attribute much of their success to Donovan Mitchell, who scored 36 points in addition to 8 rebounds and 4 steals. Cleveland also received a substantial bench contribution as reserves Georges Niang, Caris LeVert and Ty Jerome each scored a dozen points as reserves.
No team has more ATS victories than Cleveland this season, while no team has fewer ATS wins than Philadelphia. Cleveland also has the rest advantage, in addition to the Sixers definitely being without Maxey, and likely being without Embiid. The Cavs’ offense is also head and shoulders above all others this season, leading the NBA in points per game, offensive rating, field goal percentage and 3-point percentage. Meanwhile, the Sixers rank 29th in both points per game and field goal percentage. See which team to pick here.
