Pick: 76ers -3.5

  • Star advantage: Philadelphia has the best two players in the matchup (Embiid, Maxey).
  • Injuries favor Philly: Orlando is missing key contributors, limiting scoring depth and perimeter defense.
  • Offensive edge: Sixers can score inside (Embiid) and outside (Maxey), stressing Orlando’s defense.
  • Depth & experience: Philadelphia has more proven options in close games.
  • Market angle: Supports 76ers moneyline or small spread (-2.5 to -3.5).
Bottom line: Health, talent, and scoring versatility favor Philadelphia in a tight matchup.
