Premium Pick

Houston is getting big points in this one even though the 76ers are without at least three players plus the head coach who are in health and safety protocols. This is the first meeting of the season between these teams and the Rockets actually average more points per game (107.2) than Philadelphia (106.1). Of course, defensively it's a different story although the opponent's field goal percentage are similar for each team. The Sixers are 1-10 ATS their past 11 games as favorites and 1-8 ATS their last nine home games, 1-6 ATS overall following a win. Also, Philadelphia is only 2-5-1 ATS its last eight games versus teams with losing records. Take the Rockets, Max Play
