Betting on the Philadelphia 76ers
The Philadelphia team has attained 8 wins in a row with Joel Embiid performing at an incredible level. The last two games, he has been simply unbeatable. Against the Clippers, against whom they won 119-114, he scored 44 points, and against the Knicks, against whom they won 119-112, he scored 35 points. Prior to those two games, he had three consecutive games in which he converted double-doubles. Impressive.
James Harden is also pulling the offensive strings, posting 13 assists against New York, and 21 against the Lakers. That day, it seemed like he even gave passes to the people selling beer in the stadium. What an icredible performance. The great level they have is also because of the help they receive from the team’s secondary, which is not out of tune with the team. Georges Niang scored 16 points in 23 minutes.
Something to take into account, though, is their visiting record, which is not so good, with a 6-7 record. Seven of the games they have won were played at home. Only the last one against the Knicks was played on the road. They will have to put themselves to a test against the Wizards.
Betting on Washington Wizards
The Wizards are mentally recovering from a very bad streak they went through of 10 consecutive losses. In their last 3 games they have two wins and one loss. They won against the Phoenix Suns (113-110) and the Sacramento Kings (125-111), and lost to the Utah Jazz by a score of 120-112.
They are one game behind the Bulls, but they have more losses than the Bulls do, so Washington’s difference would not be enough to catch up with them, so they need to keep winning if they want to build a solid foundation. At home they have a 8-7 record, and if their stars are in good shape, they can think about ending one of the best streaks in the NBA, and with that, seal the day.
Kyle Kuzma is doing good work. Against Sacramento he scored 32 points, and against Phoenix he scored 29 points, which coincides with the two wins they achieved lately. This means that if he is in good shape, the team wins.
JefeBet Prediction
This two teams have already played twice against each other. The first game they played was on November 1, and it ended in a 118-111 victory for the 76ers. The second game they played, the Wizards defeated the 76ers in Philadelphia 121-111. There are two games left in this series, and in this 76ers vs Wizards game they can help swing the victory to either side.
We believe that because of the current momentum of Embiid and Harden, the 76ers will take the win and continue to add up wins to their spectacular streak.
Prediction: Philadelphia 76ers Moneyline.
