Philadelphia at Detroit

The Philadelphia 76ers are an ugly 3-14 to start the season and have had bad luck with injuries. Joel Embiid will miss his 4th straight game, but there is a better than 50% chance that Paul George will return tonight. Detroit's success relies heavily on Cade Cunningham, and his status is doubtful. The Sixers are catching Detroit in a good spot as the Pistons played last night, while the Sixers have been idle since Wednesday and have had a chance to button some things up. A bad team (less than .400) on 2 days' rest, taking on a home favorite on no rest, covers close to 55% of all games. I like Philadelphia in this one.
