NBA odds, picks, and predictions for the Philadelphia 76ers at Phoenix Suns on March 20. NBA betting best bet and free pick analysis.
The 76ers have been struggling since Joel Embiid went down, and our NBA picks think their weaknesses will only be amplified tonight against Jusuf Nurkic and the Phoenix Suns.
Losing a scorer of his caliber given his massive usage has tanked the Sixers' offense to 22nd in offensive rating since, and the loss of his paint presence has brought Philadelphia down to 23rd in defensive rating. The end result? A 23rd rank in net rating since his injury and a 9-13 record. On the other side of this matchup, Nurkic's proficiency on the glass has given opposing centers a hard time against the Suns. Their 13.3 rebounds allowed to the position per game is the second-lowest mark on the season, and Nurkic has been a rebounding machine as of late as well.
They still sit at 36-32 on the year which is good enough to keep them inside the Top 10 in terms of cover rate, but again they've gone 8-14 since Embiid went down, which would put them at the second-worst season-long mark. Since Embiid's injury on January 30th, the 76ers have gone 15-7 to the Under. That includes their current streak of having played to the Under in six straight games.
