The Philadelphia 76ers took back home court advantage in their opening round series vs Miami, winning Game 3 rather convincingly at 123-103. They head to Game 4 with a 2-1 series advantage. Game 3 was led by surprise starter Joel Embiid, who made his playoff debut as an NBA player count. Embiid had his fingerprints all over the game, scoring 23 points while grabbing seven rebounds, dishing out four assists, and blocking three shots, all in just 30 mnutes of floor time. Embiid is the most important player for Philadelphia as they are 12-9 SU and 8-12-1 ATS on the season when he sits out, and 42-22 SU and 41-23 ATS when he plays. That puts Philadelphia in a good spot to grab another road win here, so take Philadelphia on the moneyline.
