Sixers vs. Timberwolves 7:00pm
Sixers -3 (-110)
On this 10 game NBA slate tonight, we have just one lonely bet. We are backing the 76ers to cover the -3 point spread against the Timberwolves in Philly. This matchup features the league’s most efficient offense in the Sixers, and the most efficient defense in the T-Wolves. The Sixers have the 6th best defense, while the T-Wolves have the 17th best offense. The dropoff discrepancy between these teams' strengths looks to favor the Sixers. Philly has the second best cover percentage in the league right now. These two teams look eye-to-eye in most of the major categories. The Sixers average 9 more points, but they are almost identical in 3 pointers (attempted, made and percent), assists, rebounds, blocks and fouls. The Sixers’ 4 more free-throws and 6% better free-throw percentage is the largest statistical discrepancy between these two teams. We anticipate the Sixers to push the pace and take advantage of their offensive edge with more shots. Sixers -3 is our wager.
