76ers vs Raptors Prediction
The Philadelphia 76ers are getting healthier, which means they’re going to start getting respect in the betting market, but I’m not buying it. The 76ers continue to play underachieving ball, and that includes losses in five of their last six games. The 76ers have lost three of their last four games as a favorite. The Raptors have played winning ball since getting rotation guys back from injuries, and they’re 31-21-1 ATS on the season. The 76ers have a cover percentage of 38.4 percent, which makes them the third-worst cover team in the NBA. Only the Kings and Suns are worse at covering numbers than the 76ers. I’m not laying this number with the 76ers when they have trouble simply winning, let alone by the margin. Give me the Raptors and the points.
