The Philadelphia 76ers (14-10) travel to the State Farm Arena tonight to take on Atlanta Hawks (14-12). Philadelphia will have to navigate this match without leading scorer Tyrese Maxey (31.5 PPG), who was absent in Friday’s win over Indiana.
The two sides met on 14th December, it took a double overtime thriller for the Hawks to overcome Philadelphia 142-134. Jalen Johnson heated up with 41 points and Nickeil Alexander-Walker supported well with 34 points.
Atlanta remain without Trae Young and Kristaps Porzingis, but haven’t lacked scoring ability this season. The Hawks average the most assists per game in the league (30.7 APG), and both Johnson & Alexander-Walker are averaging above 20 PPG.
I think the trio of Johnson, Alexander-Walker, & Okongwu will be too much for the Sixers who are missing key players.
Betting Tip:
1u: Hawks -5.5 pts (-110)
