This is a 10* BK on the 76ers.

The 76ers are going to have a tough time of it for the rest of the season most nights without star Joel Embiid in the line-up.

But there will be some nights and spots where it makes sense to back Philly, and tonight is one of those times.

New Orleans comes in off back-to-back wins, but note that after three straight ATS victories, it's relevant to note here that the visiting side is in fact just 3-7 ATS in its last ten after three or more ATS victories in a row.

Philly does indeed play with revenge here as well after a 124-114 road loss as a 2.5-point favorite back in late November, and note that the 76ers are 4-1 ATS in their last five in trying to avenge a SU/ATS road loss as a fav vs. an opponent.

As I say, without Embiid it's the "next man up" mentality for the 76ers every single night, and most nights that won't work out too well for them, but here is a great spot for Philadelphia to finally be extremely competitive.

I'm stopping short in calling for the outright, but all signs point to a battle until the final horn.

Grab the points, the play is indeed on PHILADELPHIA.

Good luck, NP
