Philadelphia 76ers - Washington Wizards: Form Analysis
The two teams come into this meeting on opposite ends of the form spectrum. A lot is expected of this Philadelphia team this season with many believing this could be the year that Joel Embiid and James Harden make the NBA Finals. A slow start to the season had the alarm bells going off for fans but the team seems to have recovered well with three straight wins. The Wizards have experienced almost the complete opposite. A team not expected to do much this year, Washington got off to a hot 3-1 start before losing their last three in a row to put them below .500.

Philadelphia 76ers & Washington Wizards Squad Analysis
All-stars James Harden and Joel Embiid rightly attract most of the attention for the 76ers on a nightly basis and have each started the year playing at a high level; Harden averaging 21.8 points and 10 assists per game while Embiid continues with his MVP type numbers of 27.2 points and 9.5 rebounds per game. However, it’s the breakout performance of guard Tyrese Maxey that could perhaps be the key to Philadelphia making a legitimate title push this season. The third-year pro has taken a significant leap this season and is averaging 23.3 points per game on a superb 51% from the field and 45% from three. Maxey put up a career high 44 points against the Raptors on Friday and most recently dropped 28 against the Wizards.
Philadelphia 76ers - Washington Wizards Key Points
- The 76ers are shooting the fourth best 3-point percentage in the NBA at 39.6% while the Wizards rank 18th from beyond the arc at 35.1%.
- Washington ranks 25th in scoring offense at 109.3 points per game while the Sixers have the eighth-best defense, giving up an average of 108.1 per game.
- Washington’s defense allows 111.4 points per game this season; the Sixers are 4-1 on the year when they score more than 111 points.

Our Philadelphia 76ers vs Washington Wizards Prediction
We’re going to back the Philadelphia 76ers to get the win and cover the -7.5 point spread in the process. With the emergence of Maxey as a legitimate number three and perhaps even their number 2 scoring option at the moment, makes this Sixers team absolutely loaded with offensive firepower. Add into the fact that Embiid is continuing his MVP level play for yet another season and James Harden looks revitalized after the offseason and it’s hard to see how Washington will be able to cope with their opponents in their home gym. Philly should record a rather comfortable victory here and go to 5-4 on the year.
