Oklahoma City Thunder vs Philadelphia 76ers Prediction & Betting Tips - NBA
by Joseph King | in NBA Predictions
The Western Conference’s second-place OKC Thunder play host to the Eastern Conference’s fourth-place Philadelphia 76ers for the first game of Saturday’s NBA slate. The Thunder continue to shock the NBA this season as this young team is firing on all cylinders. While they would have been targeting a playoff appearance coming into the year, they’ll now likely be realigned their sites to a top four spot in the conference. Oklahoma City are now 11-4 in the 2023/24 campaign and are riding a six game winning run, the co-longest active streak in the NBA. The hosts are coming off a 116-102 home win over the Chicago Bulls on Wednesday. The Thunder will be well-rested for this clash as they play their second straight at home and with a three day break since their last outing. They’ll be without Jalen Williams for this one and could also be without Josh Giddey due to his off the court issues.
The 76ers had to make due without reigning MVP Joel Embiid when they made the trip to Minnesota to take on the Timberwolves on Wednesday. They would ultimately fall to a 112-99 defeat as Tyrese Maxey and crew simply didn’t have enough firepower in Embiid’s absence to get past the red-hot Timberwolves. Embiid is listed as day-to-day but is expected to return to action for the trip to OKC. They’ll need the big man to return as soon as possible to right the ship as Philly has now dropped their last two in a row. The 76ers are 10-5 on the year, placing them fourth in the East but only 1.5 games behind the conference leading Celtics. The Sixers were abysmal shooting the ball in their last appearance, registering just 39% from the field and 22% from three-point range.
