76ers vs. Cavaliers Betting Preview: Joel Embiid, Philly Should Feast
Joe Dellera previews Wednesday's NBA game between the 76ers and Cavaliers.
The Philadelphia 76ers are four-point road underdogs in a showdown with the Cavaliers on Wednesday night.
The Philadelphia 76ers are playing without Tyrese Maxey and James Harden. Joel Embiid recently returned and he torched the Hawks for 30 points, eight rebounds and seven assists. The team has struggled a bit offensively but is 5-2 in the last 2 weeks. Philadelphia has allowed the third-fewest points per 100 possessions at 109.3.
Cleveland Cavaliers have ruled out Jarrett Allen and Kevin Love for this game. Lamar Stevens is also questionable. The Cavaliers started the season on a torrid pace but are just 5-5 over their last 10 games. They are 8-1 at home.
The Cavaliers are without Jarrett Allen. The Sixers have a dominant big man in Joel Embiid. I'll pick the Sixers to win. The Cavaliers should be considered a slight underdog. They should win by more than 10 points.
