The Dallas Mavericks put their four-game home win streak on the line today against a Philadelphia 76ers team still missing reigning MVP Joel Embiid. Despite some defensive slippage on a disappointing 1-3 road trip this week, the Mavs are only a game outside the No. 6 seed in the West and are big favorites according to NBA odds. Philly is treading water without Embiid’s presence on both ends of the floor, but it picked up a much-needed 121-114 victory over the Charlotte Hornets on Friday behind 33 points from Tyrese Maxey. Check out my 76ers vs Mavericks free NBA picks on March 3 as these teams get the national TV spotlight. 76ers vs Mavericks odds 76ers vs Mavericks predictions A Dallas Mavericks offense led by Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving was always likely to deliver fireworks this season, so it’s no surprise to see the Mavs sitting inside the Top 10 in points per game (118.8). But the larger unknowns are centered around the supporting cast —...

After a rough, on-the-fly integration, the Doc Rivers Era with the Milwaukee Bucks has shown signs of taking off.  On Sunday, Milwaukee visits their new coach’s old stomping grounds in Philly, against a Philadelphia 76ers side that was doing just fine without him, though they're currently treading water while reigning MVP Joel Embiid works his way back from a knee injury. That’s a big part of the reason why the Bucks are 5-point road favorites in the NBA odds. Can Doc’s new team build on a big previous win over the West-leading Timberwolves? Read on for my free Bucks vs. 76ers preview, complete with free NBA picks. Bucks vs 76ers odds Bucks vs 76ers predictions Currently sitting in the three-spot, it’s not likely the Milwaukee Bucks can catch the top-seeded Celtics, who enter Sunday nine games ahead of Milwaukee. However, there’s a real shot it can catch Cleveland, just a game ahead of them in second place. While seeding might not...

This was supposed to be the Philadelphia 76ers ’ year. Joel Embiid was coming off an MVP season, and despite his dominant play, new head coach Nick Nurse was brought in to take Embiid and the Sixers to the next level. Which meant a deep playoff run. The early returns were promising. Somehow Embiid looked to be even better than he did in his MVP campaign, Tyrese Maxey looked like a budding superstar, and Philly was winning a lot of Game s while standing among the favorites in the NBA championship odds. Then the other shoe dropped. Embiid hurt his knee and now the Sixers are praying he can make it back in time for the playoffs. So, suddenly a team that looked like a lock to make the playoffs now has a much murkier future.  The NBA odds still have the 76ers favored to make the playoffs. Can they survive until Embiid gets back? Or is there value in fading the Sixers in the second half? Philadelphia 76ers odds to make playoffs Yes No -750 +490 O...

Trae Young and the Atlanta Hawks will Travel to the Wells Fargo Center on Friday to take on Tyrese Maxey and the Philadelphia 76ers , and we have you covered with our best bet on the latest NBA odds. Unlike the Atlanta Hawks, who everyone thought were going to trade Dejounte Murray and hit the reset button at the NBA trade deadline, the Philadelphia 76ers actually made a move before the deadline. Buddy Hield is headed to the 76ers, and this was a huge get for Philly, who could desperately use more shooting on its roster, and it could also signal that the front office expects Joel Embiid to return this season. That being said, the Sixers won't be the only team without their starting center on Friday. Find out which backup center I'm targeting in my free NBA picks for the Hawks vs. 76ers on February 9.

Much has been made about the Sixers star’s knee in recent weeks and at last it is now clear that the former MVP does in fact have a serious issue. So much so that it had to be corrected via surgery . At this point, the team finds itself in a bind as it faces a fiercely com Pet itive Eastern Conference. 76ers’ Joel Embiid undergoes knee surgery According to an announcement from the Philadelphia 76ers on Tuesday, superstar Joel Embiid has undergone a surgical procedure to repair the meniscus in his left knee. “Joel Embiid had a successful procedure today to address an injury to the lateral meniscus in his left knee,” the Sixers said in a statement. “He will be re-evaluated in approximately four weeks.” Joel Embiid had his surgery this morning on his torn lateral meniscus and he will be reevaluated in four weeks pic.twitter.com/M0hKObroAz — John Clark (@JClarkNBCS) February 6, 2024 To be clear, the estimated time for Embiid’s recovery was reportedly 1-2 months, a timeline that h...

Injuries are mounting for the Philadelphia 76ers , and with the Golden State Warriors coming to town to night amidst a bit of a revival, things could get further out of hand for a team that was dreaming of the NBA Finals just a couple of weeks ago. Can Golden State take advantage of a good matchup here and earn a much-needed win? The NBA odds sure think so. Let's get right into it with my in-depth preview and free NBA picks for the Warriors vs. 76ers on Wednesday, February 7. Warriors vs 76ers odds Warriors vs 76ers predictions It’s bad enough Joel Embiid is currently on the shelf for the foreseeable future, joining the likes of Nic Batum and Robert Covington to put this team in a bit of a bind. Now the Philadelphia 76ers will enter Wednesday’s contest with Tyrese Maxey listed as questionable with an illness. Danuel House and Marus Morris — who have been heavily relied upon in the wake of all these injuries — are also questionable. We...

Joel Embiid missed another game last night. And even though the Philadelphia 76ers star center is arguably having an even better season than he was a year ago, he’s seen his NBA MVP odds rise, as he’s only a handful of missed games away from being ineligible.  So, one would think that Embiid would do everything he could to suit up tonight when the Sixers visit Steph Curry and the Golden State Warriors on Tuesday night. Meanwhile, they are close to hitting the panic button in Golden State. The Warriors have lost 10 of their last 14 games and sit in 12th place in the Western Conference. Yet the NBA odds have the Dubs as 4.5-point home favorites for this matchup. If Embiid suits up for this game, there is serious value with Philly as underdogs. I break down this intriguing matchup and bring you the best bet plus a same-game parlay in my NBA picks and predictions for 76ers vs. Warriors on Tuesday, January 30. 76ers vs Warriors odds 76ers vs Warriors pred...
