The Philadelphia 76ers have dealt with injuries to their star players Maxey, Embiid, and George. They finally got Joel Embiid back vs. the Knicks last night, and he scored 13 points in a losing effort. Embiid played 26 minutes and I would assume he will play a few more minutes tonight. Philadelphia is only 2-8 but they are getting healthy and that makes it a tricky spot for Cleveland. At 12-0, the Cavs have a target on their back, and I'm looking for the Sixers to deliver. I like Philadelphia in this one.

Premium Picks
Philadelphia at Cleveland
The Cleveland Cavs have started to get noticed. They have played themselves up to the No. 2 seed if the NBA playoffs started today. The Cavs come in with an eight game winning streak, so they are at peak price right now, as the bandwagon of bettors grow. Philadelphia took a big blow with Joel Embiid will be sidelined at least four weeks with a knee injury. The Sixers are slowly learning how to play without their Super Star center, and got in the win column their last time on the floor. This certainly could be a "catch your breath" game for Cleveland thinking they got an easy one. Cleveland has not delivered in this spot as the Cavs have failed to cover three straight times as a double-digit favorite. Make the play on Philadelphia.
