Steph Curry, Under 23.5 Points

NBA Odds: -114 at FanDuel

The Warriors superstar PG averages 22 ppg on the season and has scored above that number just once in his last six games. Here he faces the 76ers and matches wits with Tyrese Maxey. He lit up Maxey for 47 in their first meeting when Maxey was a rookie, but since then has scored 20.3 ppg in four games. Golden State has other, better matchups to exploit here.

Steph Curry, Over 5.5 Assists

NBA Odds: -120 at BetMGM Sportsbook

We’ll double down on that last statement. Philly could be without three starters for this showdown, so Curry can dish and assist others to scores, perhaps easier than creating points of his own. He’s had six-plus assists in three of the last four games and has two 10-assist efforts over the last seven.

Khris Middleton, Over 23.5 Points/Rebounds/Assists

NBA Odds: -130 at DraftKings

Middleton’s minutes have gone up over the last five games and his production has with it. His PRA totals for those five have been 32, 31, 31, 31 and 28 – pretty consistent. One of those was against the Nets, who they face here again. Giannis and Dame missed that game, so Middleton was the focus of the Brooklyn defense. That won’t be the case here. Either way, he’s finding ways to maintain steady production.
