As the Philadelphia 76ers face off against the San Antonio Spurs, all eyes should be on Joel Embiid to surpass 24.5 points. The big man has been on an absolute tear lately, averaging 27 points over his last five games and ramping it up to 30 on the road. When you look at his recent history against the Spurs, it's even more compelling; he's dropped an impressive 38 points per game over their last five encounters, with 35 of those coming in San Antonio.Embiid's scoring prowess is no fluke-he's hit this mark in 14 of his last 16 games, and you can't ignore his perfect 5-for-5 record on the road recently. With an expected stat value of over 31, this matchup is primed for Embiid to dominate. Expect him to rise to the occasion and deliver another stellar performance on Tuesday night.

As the Spurs host the 76ers, all eyes will be on Victor Wembanyama, but betting on him to fall short of 44.5 combined points, rebounds, and assists could be the smart play. Despite his impressive averages recently-31.6 points and 16.4 rebounds per game-Wembanyama tends to distribute his efforts, especially when facing tough defenses like Philadelphia.At home, he's been strong, averaging 33.2 points and 11.8 rebounds, but he's also shown a tendency to plateau against the 76ers, scoring just 25.5 points per game against them. With an assist average of four, the math adds up to around 36.91 when we consider his overall contributions. Given that he's only hit the over 12 times in his last 20 outings, and 11 out of 18 at home, there's a solid narrative suggesting he might not breach that 44.5 mark tonight.

Victor Wembanyama (San Antonio Spurs) Under 13.5 Rebounds (-139)

Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing

As the San Antonio Spurs gear up to face the Philadelphia 76ers, all eyes will be on Victor Wembanyama, but we might want to consider betting the under on his rebounds at 13.5. While Wembanyama has dazzled with his rebounding prowess, averaging an impressive 16.4 boards over his last five games, his home numbers tell a different story. At home, he's pulled down just 11.8 rebounds, which dips below our target. Additionally, when matched up against the 76ers, he averages only 10.5 boards-far from the line we're targeting. In his last seven home games, he's cleared 13.5 rebounds just once, hitting the under six times. With an expected stat value of 11.06, it's clear that while he's a force, this matchup might constrain his rebounding totals. Betting the under seems like a savvy play for the night.
