Thunder vs 76ers prediction

The Thunder are getting the benefit of the doubt because they’re the more consistent, healthier team. However, the Thunder went from being cash cows in the NBA to covering just 3 of their last 10 games. While still banged up, the 76ers are finding ways to win games here and there, and they’ve covered 7 of their last 10 games. The 76ers also announced Embiid should return this week, which should do wonders for the morale. Gilgeous-Alexander is also dealing with a quadriceps injury, despite playing in the Thunder’s last game. Give me the 76ers and the points.
