Brooklyn Nets vs Philadelphia 76ers Prediction
The Nets are still missing Drake Powell, Cam Thomas and Haywood Highsmith, while the 76ers have ruled out Kelly Oubre Jr and they have Joel Embiid and Quentin Grimes both listed as questionable. The 76ers open as heavy favorites at home, which isn’t surprising given their recent form, but the Nets are also coming into this meeting with some momentum after beating the Raptors on Sunday.
These teams have already met twice this season with the 76ers winning on both occasions by double digits but the Nets are in decent form at the moment and I think they can keep this one to single digits.
