Philadelphia have just played two teams where their combined scores have gone over 210. They are playing a hot Memphis team on a back to back at home, so with tired legs and less defense from Memphis, expect more points. The 76’s should expect both Embiid and Maxey to play in this game adding to the firepower. They are chasing Miami for the 6th spot in the playoffs and will be determined to win this game, thus forcing the team to put up some points in this spot. The last time these two teams played over two weeks ago, Embiid was not in the line up and the score combined for 224 points. Both teams have gone over the total against each other in two of their last three recent games. The 76’s team has played to the over in four of their last five games. The 76’s have also played the majority of their games to the over when playing opponents from the Southwest Division this season. Memphis has also played their last four of five games to the over when playing opponents in the Atlantic Division. The Grizzlies like to get up for teams like the 76s, and despite being on no rest, they still will want to be competitive in this spot and there should be points in this game so take the over.

Best bet: take the Over the Total.
