Philadelphia 76ers vs Portland Trail Blazers Prediction & Betting Tips - NBA
by Joseph King in NBA Predictions
The 0-2 Portland Trail Blazers head East searching for their first win of the season when they take on the 1-1 Philadelphia 76ers on Sunday night. The 76ers were able to emerge victorious in Toronto last night to claim their first win of the season in a 114-107 game. A 35-20 third quarter essentially sealed the win for the visitors who would hold on to their lead despite losing the fourth quarter by five points. It was a much-needed response after losing a tight 118-117 game to open the season away to the Milwaukee Bucks. The Sixers now head to the Wells Fargo Center for their home opener in what will be the first of five consecutive games in their own building. They have a golden opportunity to get off to a winning start but will have to deal with potentially tired legs as they play the second leg of a back-to-back.
The Trail Blazers opened their 2023/24 campaign with a 123-111 loss to the LA Clippers before a 102-97 loss at home to the Orlando Magic. Portland lost Anfernee Simons in the opening game and his presence was sorely missing as they failed to break the 100 point mark without him in the following game. Simons is projected to be the team’s top-scorer this season following Damian Lillard’s departure to Milwaukee. The 22-year-old averaged 21.1 points per game last season but will now miss the next 4-6 weeks with a torn ligament in his thumb. The Blazers finished last season 13th in the West with a record of 33 wins and 49 defeats. This young Portland team is expected to go through a transition year as they look to form some team cohesion with their new pieces and build some of their promising young players such as Scoot Henderson.
