Raptors vs. 76ers Best NBA Prop Bets
Toronto Raptors
Scottie Barnes OVER 5.5 Assists (-140)
The Sixers' defense has been shaky all season, and this matchup should suit Barnes nicely, the team’s lead guard.
Barnes averages more than 12 potential assists per game this season while the Sixers have allowed the seventh most assists per game.
This is right around his averages both short and long-term, Barnes averages north of six assists per game over the last five games.
In a game that may feature limited defense, expect Barnes to do a ton of creation for this Raptors squad.
Philadelphia 76ers
Joel Embiid OVER 27.5 Points (-122)
Embiid is questionable for this one with his lingering knee injury, but if he plays, expect him to dominate against a poor Raptors frontcourt.
In three games this month, Embiid has averaged 26 points in 31 minutes, but this is an incredibly advantageous matchup for the former MVP.
Toronto moved Kelly Olynyk at the trade deadline and is set to be without big man Jakob Poeltl in this one, leaving only Jonathan Mogbo, Chris Boucher and Ulrich Chomche to guard Embiid.
If he goes, expect him to have a big night scoring.
Raptors vs. 76ers Prediction and Pick
In the three games that Embiid has played since returning from injury in February, the Sixers have gone over the total.
While the big man’s status is always fickle, and this being the first game of a back-to-back, the expectation as of this writing is that he will play in this one.
With that in mind, I’m going to go over yet again.
Embiid’s defense has been poor since returning as his mobility has been hampered due to his bulky knee, but his offense remains elite as he draws a great matchup against the short-handed Raptors front court.
The Raptors' offense is far from elite, bottom 10 in points per 100 possessions this season, but with the Sixers' inability to get stops with Embiid on the floor, I’m willing to go over this total that implies an average scoring game.
