76ers vs Thunder

Oklahoma City rides Shai Gilgeous-Alexander’s MVP-level form and a largely healthy core into this home spot against a 76ers group on a two-game skid, missing Joel Embiid and key rotation pieces while asking Tyrese Maxey and Paul George to carry heavy offensive and defensive loads, and with the Thunder still 26-5 despite a recent rough patch plus Shai’s strong track record versus Philly, the straight moneyline at -1000 is the logical side but earns only a B grade because the win probability is sky-high while the payout is minimal.

Tyrese Maxey’s outsized offensive burden without Embiid, combined with the Thunder’s elite half-court defense, recent dip in their own offensive rhythm and a real chance of a lopsided score that suppresses Philly’s late-game production, points me toward the Under 226 at -110 even though both teams’ season-long scoring averages are high, grading this play a B because the matchup factors favor a slightly lower total but the market has already shaded down for the injuries and Oklahoma City’s minor slump.

Philadelphia’s recent form is poor, but with Maxey and George still available, Embiid sidelined, the Thunder coming off four losses in their last six and occasionally playing down to opponents after building big leads, grabbing the 76ers at +14.5 feels like enough cushion for a backdoor cover against a home favorite that may prioritize getting out healthy over running up the score, so I’ll take the points at -108 with a B- grade given the blowout risk but reasonable value on such a massive number.
