The current betting odds have the 76ers listed as a 4 point underdog in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The 76ers have looked good in their games this season with their 30-20 record overall which has them in a playoff spot in the East right now. They have also looked a lot better in their home games this year with their 17-9 home record. Meanwhile, the Hawks haven't looked great in their games this season with their 22-29 record overall which has them near the bottom of the East and barely hanging onto the last play-in spot for the playoffs. They haven't looked great in their road games either with their 10-15 road record and they have no momentum coming into this one with 2 losses in a row now. The 76ers haven't looked any better in their games lately with 3 losses in a row now but they will be looking to bounce back after a really bad stretch of games and prove they can still win on their home court without Embiid in the lineup. The Hawks have been a really up and down team all season and haven't looked good in their games lately so this is a great opportunity for the 76ers to bounce back and get a much needed win on their home court. The best way to place a bet here is on the 76ers to cover the spread in this game.

“When you shoot then you’re going to have to make some shots against a team that shoots it as well as Boston does.” - Quin Snyder after his team’s loss against the Celtics in their game on Wednesday.

“We need to get a little bit more of the firepower back. Then the guys that are there need to be feeling a little more closer to 100%, too. Again, I've got to say, we've got some guys going out there and they're semi-sick and pretty sick and they're not 100%. They're trying.” - Nick Nurse after his team’s loss against the Warriors in their game on Wednesday.
