Joel Embiid is dealing with a back injury, but is listed as probable to play tonight.

NBA Betting Trends

Philadelphia

The 76ers have covered the spread in 22 of their last 30 games against Pacific division opponents, but are 6-13 ATS in their last 19 road games against a team with a winning home record.

Golden State

The Warriors have covered in five straight against a winning team and in four of their last five against Eastern Conference opponents.

Prediction:

The addition of DeMarcus Cousins looks to have taken the Warriors to another level. They have won all five games with him, covering in four of the five. All of those games have been on the road. Now he gets to play in front of his new home crowd. Philly has been streaky on the road and I don’t think they match up well with Golden State. The Warriors can outscore Philly and the 76ers don’t have the outside shooting to match this team. I like the Warriors to stay hot.

NBA Prediction: Golden State Warriors -9.5
