Heat vs 76ers Moneyline Pick: Heat (+115)
Both teams are banged up, but the Heat should be able to handle it a bit better after a pair of road wins against Detroit over the weekend.
The 76ers have not been quite the same since Embiid went down, recording an 11-22 record in that time, and with Harris now questionable as well, their scoring could take another hit. Against Charlotte over the weekend, with both Harris and Embiid out, Philly finished with 109 points, relying on Tyrese Maxey to get the job done with 30 points. Though that may have worked against the Hornets, the Heat are a stronger opponent and Bam Adebayo could also take advantage of an Embiid-less team.
Miami has also been strong on the road, going 20-15 this season, and it has had success against the 76ers as well, winning both of the first two matchups. Though it’s best to check who’s in and who’s out in this one before making your NBA picks, the Heat could be a solid bet to get it done once again.
Heat vs 76ers Player Prop: Tyrese Maxey Over 27.5 Points (-104)
Maxey has taken over the scoring since Embiid went down, leading the 76ers with 26 points a game, and he has stepped up even more since the All-Star Break. Maxey has averaged 27.7 points since the break, scoring at least 27 points in three of his last five games.
Maxey had a pair of 30-point outings in each of his last two games, and he’ll be looked to to step up and lead the scoring yet again, especially if Harris is sitting. Though he has averaged 21 points against Miami this season, he’s been solid at home, averaging 26 points, and he should be ready for another big night to help Philly keep it close.
