Milwaukee Bucks vs Philadelphia 76ers Picks
Bucks vs 76ers Spread Pick
- Take Philadelphia to cover (5 units)
The 76ers are coming off a brutal loss to Charlotte on the road. It was a game that they barely competed in as the team was missing Paul George and Joel Embiid due to rest. If those two players are able to go in this game, the 76ers will be able to secure the win over the Bucks. Milwaukee has struggled recently and they have been even worse when Giannis Antetokounmpo has been missing. He’s out with a calf injury and the team has zero individual scoring threats. The 76ers with their strong guard play should come away with an easy home win. Plus, the 76ers have been solid this season with no rest. The 76ers are 7-1 against the spread on day two of a back-to-back. The Bucks are 11-12 against the spread when playing on the road.
Take the 76ers to cover.
