The Brooklyn Nets invade the Wells Fargo Center to take on the Philadelphia 76ers on Saturday night. Here’s a Brooklyn Nets vs Philadelphia 76ers Prediction. This article will include a Brooklyn Nets vs Philadelphia 76ers Pick.

Brooklyn Nets Betting Preview

The Brooklyn Nets have been in great shape as they've won six of their last eight games overall, but they will be eager to bounce back in this one after having their three-game win streak halted by the red-hot Cavaliers in a 110-97 loss on Thursday. Cameron Johnson led the team with 18 points on six of 11 shooting, Keon Johnson added 16 points while Trendon Watford chipped in with 13 points off the bench. As a team, the Nets shot 40 percent from the field and 10 of 38 from the 3-point line as they shook off a slow start and worked hard to take a narrow lead into halftime, only to get outscored by 62-47 in the second half where the Cavaliers' starters took over the game. The Nets will face the Wizards, Thunder, and Trail Blazers following this one.

Philadelphia 76ers Betting Preview

Meanwhile, the Philadelphia 76ers have been in a terrible slump as they've lost eight of their last nine games overall and they will be hoping to put an end to a six-game slide after getting routed by the Celtics in a 124-104 home loss on Thursday. Paul George led the team with 17 points, Tyrese Maxey and Kelly Oubre Jr each scored 16 points while Joel Embiid chipped in with 15 points. As a team, the 76ers shot just 43 percent from the field and eight of 39 from the 3-point line as they struggled to keep pace with the Celtics from the start, allowing 100 points by the end of the third quarter to trail by as many as 29 points in this one. The 76ers will take on the Bulls after this game.

Why the Philadelphia 76ers will win

  • The 76ers have won each of their last six games against the Nets at Wells Fargo Center following a loss.
  • The Nets have lost seven of their last eight games at Wells Fargo Center following a home loss.
  • The 76ers have covered the spread in each of their last six games against the Nets at Wells Fargo Center following a loss.
  • The Nets have failed to cover the spread in four of their last five road games against 76ers teams that held a losing record.

Why the Brooklyn Nets will win

  • The Nets have won each of their last two games as underdogs following a loss.
  • The 76ers have failed to cover the spread in each of their last seven games.
  • The underdogs have covered the spread in 11 of the 76ers' last 13 games.

  • Each of the 76ers' last three home night games following a home loss has gone OVER the total points line.

Brooklyn Nets vs Philadelphia 76ers Prediction

The Nets are still missing a couple of players with Cam Thomas and D'Angelo Russell both out again, while the 76ers are missing Eric Gordon and Kyle Lowry once again. It's easy to keep falling into the trap of believing that the 76ers will turn things around as they have so much talent on their roster, but the 76ers have been in season-worst form and shouldn't be so heavily favored against any team right now. With that being said, I am going with the Nets and the points in a game they could win outright.
