76ers vs. Wizards: NBA Best Bets Odds, Picks & Predictions (Tuesday)

Usually, on Tuesdays, we’re hit with a minimal amount of games. But because of the holiday weekend, today’s slate is loaded with 10 games.

I’ve got a couple of bets that I’ll be hammering today. And here’s a closer look at 76ers vs. Wizards.

Top NBA Betting Odds, Picks & Predictions: 76ers vs. Wizards

The Philadelphia 76ers are one of the hottest teams in the NBA. They took care of the Knicks on Christmas Day on the road and will soon get back Tyrese Maxey. However, he won’t be playing in this game.

Either way, the 76ers will be careful with the ball and limit turnovers against a Washington team that has only earned 12.7% of turnovers this season. Philadelphia is one of the best teams at getting to the foul line and should see it at a solid rate against Washington. The 76ers won’t dominate the glass and could have trouble getting up-quality looks.

This year, Washington has held opponents to a 53.5% effective field goal percentage. Washington’s defense could hold up, but its offense probably won’t. The 76ers are top-five in points per 100 possessions, effective field goal percentage and turnover percentage on the defensive end. That doesn’t bode well for the Wizards, who have only earned 112.7 points per 100 possessions this year. That rate is good for 17th in the NBA. Also, Washington isn’t aggressive on the offensive glass and won’t see the foul line very often.

Back Philadelphia on the road against the spread.

Bet: 76ers -4.5  (-110)
