Free Betting Pick: Charlotte Hornets -1
The Philadelphia 76ers have dominated the Charlotte Hornets as of recent as they have covered the spread in 7 of their last 9 matchups. Joel Embiid is day-to-day for this matchup, but they still hold a ton of firepower with Simmons, Butler, and Harris. Charlotte has not been great at home this season, especially as of recent as they have failed to cover the spread in their last 6 games. As we saw in Miami, the Hornets struggle to find scoring when Kemba Walker is off, so expect Simmons to get up on the all-star. Charlotte wins and covers, 114-108.
