Betting insights
- Joel Embiid's health status never feels rock solid, but it'd be fair to expect him to play against the Celtics after playing four of Philly's final six games before the break (sitting for a pair of back-to-backs). Embiid last faced Boston on Christmas Day, when he led the Sixers to a win as 9.5-point underdogs.
- On Feb. 10, Orlando lost at home as a 6.5-point favourite against Atlanta. Now the teams reunite in the Peach State with the Haws riding a 9-1 ATS win streak. Orlando is 1-8 SU and ATS in its past nine road games.
- How's this for a welcome back after the break? After facing Luka Doncic, LeBron James and the Lakers in Wednesday's standalone matchup, the Hornets have a back-to-back against the Nuggets. Denver surged into the all-star break on an NBA-high win streak (eight games).
- Cleveland has the highest over rate in the NBA (36-18-0, 66.7%), per Team Rankings. But Brooklyn's over rate (23-31-0, 42.6%) is among the league's lowest.
- His scoring is down a touch, but look at what Victor Wembanyama has accomplished since the calendar flipped to 2025: 22.2 points, 12.6 rebounds, 3.7 blocks, and 1.3 steals. The Suns, who sit 1.5 games outside the play-in picture, will need to keep him in check to win.
