Hawks at 76ers picks and predictions

Prediction

Hawks 126, 76ers 119

Moneyline

PASS.

There is better value on the Hawks (-145) spread.

Against the spread

BET HAWKS -3.5 (-105).

Atlanta has covered in 4 of its last 5 games including its last 2 games as the favorite. While it is dealing with the injury of big man Capela, it faces a Philadelphia team that is riddled with injuries, like Embiid, Hield and Payne. Philly is just 2-8 ATS in its last 10 including failing to cover in 3 straight, all at home. Without Embiid, the Sixers' offense has stalled while its defense has struggled.

Over/Under

LEAN OVER 243.5 (-110).

The Hawks have a 29-22 Over record this season and have hit the Over in 6 of their last 10 games and 2 of their last 3. They have scored 126 or more in 6 of their last 7 games while allowing 120 or more in 9 of their last 10. The Sixers have hit the Over in 2 of their last 4 games and have scored 121 or more in each of those games. They have allowed 118 or more in 8 of their last 10.
