The Philadelphia 76ers (13-11) will be travelling to face the Charlotte Hornets (14-12) in a clash of Eastern conference playoff hopefuls.
The Hornets are dealing with COVID-19 related issues, as star guards LaMelo Ball and Terry Rozier will be held out of this matchup as they continue to remain in health and safety protocol.
The 76ers look to be at full strength heading into this matchup, although they will be without guard Ben Simmons, whose trade demands have continued to make headlines as he has not featured in one game this season.
Philadelphia has been on fire as of last — winning eight of their last 10, while the Hornets despite being short handed have won their last three contests. A win here is crucial for both teams as they currently sit seventh and eighth in the Eastern conference playoff standings.
Charlotte enters this contest as the underdog, despite the three-game winning streak, and a shocking win over the top team in the Eastern conference in the Brooklyn Nets. However, the 76ers potent one-two combo of Joel Embiid and Tobias Harris may be too much for the Hornets to overcome, as well as the emergence of second-year guard Tyrese Maxey.
Although the 76ers enter this contest as the betting favorite, it is not a huge difference separating these two emerging playoff contenders.
Money line: Spread:
Philadelphia 76ers: -100 Philadelphia 76ers: -4
Charlotte Hornets: 100 Charlotte Hornets: – 4
