Premium Pick

Philadelphia just completed a Gentleman's Sweep of the Wizards, winning in five games without ever being seriously threatened, and now the 76ers move on to play Atlanta on Sunday. The Sixers won and covered two of the three meetings this season, including two blowouts, 127-83 and 126-104 in late April. Joel Embiid is questionable with a right knee injury, and he participated in his team's practice on Saturday. Philly will concentrate on Trae Young, especially taking away his 3-pointers, and the 76ers will be playing in front of a capacity crowd on their home court. The Hawks have covered just two of their last eight road games, and the Sixers have covered five of six at home. Play the 76ers in Game 1 for a Max Play.
