Advice and prediction

Both the spread and the money line for Monday’s game, making it a fairly straightforward read on the situation. On one hand, the Sixers shot exceedingly well on Saturday particularly from 3. On the other hand, Terry Rozier’s 39-point performance was needed for the Hornets to remain even relatively close.

The over/under on Joel Embiid’s rebounds is the same as Saturday as well at 13.5. Embiid grabbed eight rebounds in the first quarter and then managed just six the rest of the game. Interestingly, Ben Simmons’ over/under on rebounds is 7.5. Either one feels like safe bets.

Prediction: Sixers 115, Hornets 101
