The Brooklyn Nets invade the Wells Fargo Center to battle the Philadelphia 76ers on Friday night. Here’s a Brooklyn Nets vs Philadelphia 76ers Prediction. This article will include a Brooklyn Nets vs Philadelphia 76ers Pick.
Brooklyn Nets
The Brooklyn Nets have been in poor form as they’ve lost five of their last seven games overall, but they will be feeling much better after snapping a three-game slide with a 116-115 win over the Hornets on Tuesday. Cameron Johnson led the team with 34 points on 11 of 20 shooting, Jalen Wilson added 17 points while Dennis Schroder chipped in with 14 points and 12 assists. As a team, the Nets shot 49 percent from the field and 18 of 41 from the 3-point line as they allowed the Hornets off to a flyer and quickly found themselves trailing by 17 points. To their credit, the Nets chipped away at the deficit and took over in the fourth quarter to escape with an impressive comeback win in front of their home fans. The Nets will meet the Kings after this game.
Philadelphia 76ers
Meanwhile, the Philadelphia 76ers have been in terrible shape as they’ve lost 12 of their first 14 games and they will be hoping to avoid a sixth straight defeat after getting beaten by the Grizzlies in a 117-111 road defeat on Wednesday. Joel Embiid led the team with 35 points, Jared McCain added 20 points with five assists while Guerschon Yabusele chipped in with 17 points. As a team, the 76ers shot 44 percent from the field and 11 of 33 from the 3-point line as they struggled to keep pace with the Grizzlies from the start, falling behind by 19 points early on, before they rallied to get within four points with 54.1 seconds left on the clock. The Sixers will face the Clippers and Rockets following this one.
Why the Philadelphia 76ers will win

- The 76ers have covered the spread in each of their last five 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 games against Eastern Conference opponents that held a losing record.

Brooklyn Nets vs Philadelphia 76ers Prediction
The Nets are keeping eyes on Dorian Finney-Smith and Nic Claxton who are both questionable, while the 76ers are still missing Paul George and Kyle Lowry. The Nets were really struggling before they snapped out of it with a comeback win over the Hornets on Tuesday, while the 76ers have continued their nosedive with another loss on Wednesday. You really couldn’t back either team with too much confidence given their current form, so on that point, I am taking the points as I just don’t feel that the 76ers should be favored by so many points given how bad they have been lately.
