The Philadelphia 76ers head north of the border to Toronto in an Eastern Conference showdown with the Raptors on Thursday night.
The Raptors occupy the 5th seed after outlasting the Atlanta Hawks in a 118-108 victory in their last game. The 76ers are in a three team log jam for second place in the Eastern Conference with the Boston Celtics and Milwaukee Bucks.
Philadelphia comes to Toronto in search of a four game regular season series split after losing two of the first three head-to-head meetings.
Raptors vs 76ers Team Total Props
The Philadelphia 76ers are slim favorites at -1.5 with a total of 220, setting the Raptors team total at 109.5 and the 76ers at 110.5. The 76ers head-to-head victory came in Toronto by the score of 114-109.
The Raptors won both games in Philadelphia, 93-88 and 115-109. So the road team has prevailed in all three matchups.
The 76ers someone constantly switch between high and low scoring outputs. They are below average in shooting percentage and 26th in pace of play.
They do make up with free throws as they lead the league in both attempts and percentage. Philadelphia has their way with weak defenses, but Toronto presents a different challenge.
They have ratcheted up their defense of late and are 8th in defensive rating while allowing only 106 points per game at home this season.
They have held the 76ers under their team total in two of three games with only 114 points allowed in the one game Philly went over.
Team Total Prop Play: Philadelphia 76ers Under 110.5
Raptors vs 76ers Player Props
Joel Embiid was a cash cow for points overs during his amazing stretch a few months back. Tonight his point total is 32.5, which is a lot to ask against a defense like Torontos, even in an MVP push.
Embiid has had some big games against the Raptors, maybe he can be utilized in the same game parlay. Pascal Siakam has a more manageable PRA total of 37.5.
A total he has cleared in both head-to-head meetings with Philadelphia and his last two games overall. Let’s take a shot on Siakam.
Player Prop Play: Pascal Siakam Over 37.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists
Raptors vs 76ers Same Game Parlay
The obvious starting point is Siakam, he has the ability to put up big numbers in all three major categories.
Separate all three categories and take the lowest number possible, 15+ points, 3+ assists and 7+ rebounds. He clears all three on a consistent basis.
Embiids numbers are huge but we can except 25+ points and 10+ rebounds as a minimal. He has hit the rebound number in nine straight and the point total in eight straight games. All five plays together will get us a plus price of +115.
Same Game Parlay Prop Play:
Siakam 15+ Points
Siakam 3+ Assists
Siakam 7+ Rebounds
Embiid 25+ Points
Embiid 10+ Rebounds
+115
