Thunder at 76ers: Odds, lines, predictions and picks
Prediction
76ers 111, Thunder 104
Money line (ML)
The 76ers (-650) will cost you six-and-a-half times your potential return, and over the long term that’s not a very good betting strategy, especially backing a team that isn’t playing very well at the moment.

Against the spread (ATS)
Backing the THUNDER +11.5 (-110) seems like a poor idea on the surface, but with Simmons out, and Embiid and Harris question marks, it’s a good play. Plus, OKC is 2-1 ATS in the past three as a double-digit underdogs.
Over/Under (O/U)
UNDER 219.5 (-110) is the way to go, as the trends point strongly to the Under for both sides.
The Under is 6-1 in Philly’s past seven as a favorite, while going 8-2 in its past 10 against teams with a losing overall mark. The Under is 5-1 in OKC’s past six road outings, too.
