Philadelphia keeps losing, but the 76ers gave Miami a scare on Saturday before finally losing 96-91 and covering the number. Isaiah Cannan scored 22 points and Robert Covington added 21 points, but the Sixers couldn't overcome a .378 field goal percentage. Minnesota is an incredible 0-6 straight up at home this season after an ugly 96-86 loss against Detroit on Friday. The Timberwolves were just 3-of-13 from three-point range and shot 42.9 percent overall from the field. Andrew Wiggins was the lone bright spot with 21 points and 11 rebounds. The Wolves have lost six of their last seven games and surprisingly Philadelphia won both meetings last season. The Sixers are 4-1 ATS their last five games against teams with losing home records, and Minnesota is 2-14 ATS its last 16 home games dating to last season. Philly may not win again, but the value is with the points. Play the 76ers.
