Our model is projecting a few guys to pull down multiple boards tonight, with John Collins looking like recording eight rebounds.

Another big man set for a big name on the boards tonight, our projections have KAT bringing it down 12 times, producing a ni d edge on the sportsbooks that have set his line at 10.5 for this one.

We also have Jonas Valanciunas recording 13 boards, so it looks like the big men are set for a night here!

76ers @ Rockets

PLAYER: Joel Embiid

BET: 🔥 OVER 26.5 points BetMGM  (-115)

Last but not least is Joel "The Process" Embiid, who we have putting up 30 points in a win over the Houston Rockets.

With the line for this matchup set at 15 points in favor of the Sixers, it appears the books are predicting a blowout, which would impact on Embiid's chances of going big.

But in our preview of tonight's games, we showcased our model's pick of the Rockets to cover, which in turn would help this prop bet cash.
