Portland is a long way from home, its second road game of a five-game trek. The Blazers are #21 in the NBA in points scored, #24 in field goal shooting. They head to a young Philadelphia squad that has turned things around quickly, with a winning record overall as the 76ers have won 8 of 11 games. They come off a 107-86 pounding of Utah as rookie Ben Simmons had 27 points and 10 boards, his fourth straight double-double. The previous game they gave defending champion Golden State a good run. Philadelphia is sixth in the NBA in scoring, ninth in three-point shooting, while the defense is seventh in field goal shooting allowed and tied for first at defending the three-pointer. This is the third straight home game for the 76ers on a six-game home stand, and the wagering value is on the home team to win the game straight-up. Play Philadelphia on the moneyline.
