Philadelphia 76ers vs San Antonio Spurs Prediction, Odds and Picks for Today, 04/06/26

I was really disappointed with the effort of the 76ers in their last game, as they lost to the Detroit Pistons 116-93. A portion of that defeat could be attributed to the fact that Philly was playing on a back end of a back-to-back scenario, but I still didn’t expect them to get blown out by a Cade Cunningham-less Pistons team at home like that. Monday sees the Sixers face an even more difficult challenge, as they head to San Antonio for a date with Victor Wembanyama and the high-scoring Spurs. San Antonio blew them out by 40 points in the first meeting about a month ago; in that game the Sixers were without Joel Embiid and Paul George.

San Antono’s 11-game winning streak was halted by the Denver Nuggets over the weekend in a narrow 2-point OT loss. It was an impressive offensive display from both sides, but in the end the experience of the Nuggets gave them the edge — as did Nikola Jokic, who had 40 points, 8 rebounds and 13 assists. Wembanyama also responded with a 34-point, 18-rebound, 7-assist and 5-block performance, adding to this MVP case. However, with 4 games remaining and the Thunder now seemingly pulling away with the top seed, it’s very unlikely the Frenchman gets the crown this time around. I do not anticipate the Spurs rolling over here, though, as they are still playing games like their lives depend on it. I’m expecting a max effort from their side.

I was really impressed with the shooting display by the Spurs in their last game despite the loss to Denver. The Sixers have shown glimpses of brilliance lately with their Big 3 back and playing together, but it’s still not consistent enough to warrant my belief in them that they can get a result against a quality team like San Antonio. I’ll take the home team.
