Back on the road tonight, which has been a tricky role lately for the Sixers, who have lost their last two as a visitor. That wasn't a problem the last time they visited Orlando back on Dec. 27, when even minus Joel Embiid they would roll 112-92, with Tyrese Maxey's 23 points leading the way. But the Magic played one of their worst games of the year that night, and have mostly managed to hold their own the past two weeks minus Franz Wagner, who remains out with a sprained ankle. Despite that Dec 27 loss to the Sixers, the Magic has been pretty good value at home, winning 13 of 18 at what they now call the Kia Center. Play Magic
It is never pleasant fading the reigning MVP Joel Embiid, however this number really should be set at 0.5. For starters, Embiid only averages 1.2 made three pointers per game and over his last 10 games is attempting just 3.1 threes per game. His opponent the Orlando Magic surrender the fewest made three's to opposing Centers at just 0.56 per game. There is some significant juice here but I have a sizable edge on the under.
