Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

When the Philadelphia 76ers roll into San Antonio, all eyes should be on Joel Embiid, particularly for the points prop set at 24.5. Embiid has been on an absolute tear, averaging 30 points over his last five games away from home. Against the Spurs, his scoring prowess shines even brighter; he's dropped an astonishing 38 points in their recent encounters. With a hit rate of 14 out of his last 16 games, his consistency is undeniable.The matchup favors Embiid, especially considering San Antonio's defensive struggles. They've been unable to contain elite scorers, and with Embiid's current form-he's expected to notch around 31 points-betting on the over feels like a smart play. Given that he's hit the over in each of his last five away games, it's hard to see this trend slowing down. Grab that over; Embiid is primed for a big night under the Texas sky.

Victor Wembanyama (San Antonio Spurs) Under 13.5 Rebounds (-139)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As we look ahead to the matchup between the Spurs and the 76ers, targeting Victor Wembanyama for under 13.5 rebounds feels like a savvy play. While he's been a standout, averaging 16.4 rebounds over his last five games, his home performance tells a different story-he's pulled down just 11.8 on his home court lately. The 76ers, with their size and physicality, make it tough for even elite rebounders like Wembanyama. In fact, he averages only 10.5 boards against Philly historically, and his recent outings against them at home have seen him notch an impressive 18 rebounds, but those games are outliers. Given his expected stat value of 11.06 and a hit rate of just 6 out of the last 7 at home for this line, betting the under seems not only logical but also reflective of the matchup dynamics.

Victor Wembanyama (San Antonio Spurs) Under 16.5 Rebounds + Assists (-120)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

Victor Wembanyama's home performances have been nothing short of spectacular, but as the Spurs face off against the Philadelphia 76ers, the under on his combined rebounds and assists at 16.5 might be the way to go. Over his last five home games, he's averaged just 16.2 combined, a slight dip that could signal a slight regression. Against the 76ers, he's managed only 10.5 rebounds in their recent matchups, and while he's had a decent assist rate at home, the total just hasn't hit that lofty mark. With an overall hit rate of 11 out of 19 and a home rate of 15 out of 19, we see a pattern emerging: Wembanyama tends to fall short against tougher opponents. With the Spurs battling for a spot and the 76ers' defense tightening up, the under seems like a solid play here.
