Spurs vs 76ers Pickswise Expert Predictions

Point Spread Pick
PHI 76ers +7.5(-105)

On Sunday we saw a very uncharacteristic display from the San Antonio Spurs who fell on the road at Madison Square Garden 114-89 to the Knicks. After an unbeaten run in February, starting off the month of March with a loss was not ideal. Wemby did his part with 25 points and 13 rebounds, but he did turn the ball over 7 times. As a team the Spurs just didn’t look locked in from the start, they ended the game with 22 turnovers and there lies the reason why the lost the game. They now head to Philadelphia and a venue where they’ve struggled over the years winning just once in 9 visits.

Philly’s biggest issue here is the absence of Joel Embiid. That means extra playing time for Andre Drummond down low, I am curious to see how his physicality affects Wembanyama down low. He might not have the height advantage, but Drummond’s thick frame and maneuverability might be an issue for the Spurs big man. Tyrese Maxey will be the key factor for Philadelphia here though, the shooting guard has played extremely well on offense lately averaging over 30 points per game in his last 10 outings. He’s gone over 30 points in 3 of 4 games, but in order for the Sixers to be competitive here he will need to get his teammates involved. In the 3 wins prior to the loss to Boston he collected 8, 8 and 11 assists, while against the Cs he was limited to just 6 and it cost the Sixers the game.

No Embiid means that we get the Sixers at a very tempting price as a home underdog here. They’ve had the edge over the years in this match-up and with them going 7-3 SU in 10 games vs West opponents ahead of this game, I believe they won’t go away lightly here. I’ll go with Philly plus the extra points.

Spurs vs 76ers prediction: 76ers +7.5 (-110) available at time of publishing. Playable at that number.
