Hope you all had a great weekend! There are some injuries to watch for tonight in the NBA. For all subscribers, I included the 76ers chart for games without Joel Embiid. ESPN insider Shams Charania tweeted yesterday that the 76ers are consulting doctors and considering alternative options on Embiid’s injured knee. I have a ton of different NBA charts constantly being updated to help make better bets when it comes to injuries and back-to-backs.

NBA Injuries To Watch Tonight

  • ATL PG Trae Young PROBABLE (achilles)

  • CHA C Mark Williams OUT (injury management)

  • CHI C Nikola Vucevic PROBABLE (calf)

A lot of the props are spot on tonight with these averages. The one with a slight edge would be Yabusele over rebounds. Not much to love, but the Bulls are bottom three in points, rebounds and assists allowed.

As for how opposing bigs do against the 76ers without Embiid, they’re averaging 16.9 ppg and 10.3 rebounds. Vucevic’s points prop is 18.5 and his rebounds prop is 10.5.
