Rockets at 76ers picks and predictions

Prediction

76ers 122, Rockets 112

Moneyline

PASS.

Philadelphia will come away with the win here, but a -310 favorite is not worth the risk of betting on. Bet on the spread and/or O/U instead.

Against the spread

LEAN 76ERS -7.5 (-110).

Philadelphia has covered ATS in back-to-back matchups with Houston and is 5-1 ATS in its last 6 vs. the Rockets. The 76ers also covered in their last outing and are 24-13 ATS this year. Houston has dropped 4 consecutive games ATS, with all games being as the away squad.

This is only a lean because Philadelphia hasn't been great ATS lately and both teams have been good ATS this year.

Over/Under

BET OVER 228 (-110).

The Over has hit in 3 of Houston's last 4 overall and is 7-3 for the Rockets in their last 10. The Over is also 5-1-1 in the last 7 Houston-Philadelphia matchups overall and is 2-0-1 in the last 3 matchups in Philadelphia. The Over is 21-15 for Philadelphia this year.
