76ers vs Thunder NBA Preview
Action PRO projects 76ers guard VJ Edgecombe for 16.41 points tonight, an excellent 21.8% edge against the market when compared to his 13.5 line.
Although he just scored 10 points in his last game, Edgecombe went over this line in the previous five contests.
The 76ers will be without Joel Embiid today due to a right ankle sprain, which will increase Edgecombe's opportunities in Philly's offense.
Trendon Watford and Kelly Oubre Jr. are also ruled out, and the 76ers will wait on Paul George, who is dealing with left knee issues.
Even though the OKC defense is the best in the NBA, Edgecombe is averaging 17.0 points in his last 10 games, scoring 20 or more in four of his past five.
Back him today to go over this line against the Thunder.
Pick: VJ Edgecombe Over 13.5 Points (-117, DraftKings)
