By Anthony Rome
The Philadelphia 76ers head to the Lone Star State tonight to take on the San Antonio Spurs. Continue reading for our free pick for this Saturday NBA contest.
Oddsmakers from online sports book SBGGLOBAL.com have made the Spurs 9.5-point favorites over the 76ers on Saturday night. The over/under total for this game is currently 202.5 points.
The 76ers have had a rough go of things so far and are just 2-7 to start the season. They have, however, covered in five of their first nine games with one push and despite being 1-4 on the road this year, they’re 3-1-1 ATS.
The Spurs are completely opposite. They’ve raced out to a 6-1 start but are just 3-3-1 against the number. They’re 3-1 at home this season but have failed to cover in three of their four games at the AT&T Center.
Our NBA Free Pick:
The Sixers have had a ton of success against the number when playing the Spurs throughout the years. They’re 5-0 against the number in the last five meetings with the Spurs in San Antonio and 16-3 ATS in the last 19 meetings overall. The underdog is also 15-3 ATS in the last 18 meetings and while San Antonio should pick up another win, we think Philadelphia will hang around long enough to cover the 9.5 points. Our pick for this game is the 76ers.
