The odds of the Nuggets emerging victorious from their seven-game road series, in which they already have a 1-4 record, were slim. Their victory is because it came at a time when the team was dealing with injuries to Cameron Johnson, Valanciunas, and their biggest star, Jokic. On Sunday, the Nets were able to capitalize on their absences, defeating Denver 127-115 in Brooklyn. Now, the 76ers are heavy favorites, up to 12 points, to beat the Nuggets.
The 76ers are riding a three-game winning streak into the game against the Nuggets: 139-136 against the Grizzlies, 123-108 against the Mavericks, and 130-119 against the Knicks. At Madison Square Garden, Philadelphia was incredibly accurate from beyond the arc, sinking 17 of 36 three-point attempts. Embiid contributed 26 points, the same as rookie Edgecombe; The latter played 41 minutes, and Maxey led Philadelphia with 36 points that night.

Our Philadelphia 76ers vs Denver Nuggets Prediction
Embiid has rebounded with two double-doubles in his last three games despite his struggles with three-pointers. The good news for him is that the team has supported him.
Although the Nuggets have won the last three times they've faced the Sixers, this time they're without Jokic, while for Philadelphia, no player averages more minutes per game than Maxey's 39.8.
Our prediction for 76ers vs Nuggets is: 76ers -11.5.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
