NBC Sports Betting Best Bets

Vaughn Dalzell (@VmoneySports) expects OKC’s defense to limit Philly’s weapons: Kelly Oubre under 13.5 points (-125)
“Oubre has scored 15 or more points in four of his last five games, and with Joel Embiid expected to be sidelined, most will rush to the window on Oubre’s Overs. While he has been scoring recently, the 76ers are in double figures underdogs for Thunder, who have NBA’s best defense There will be plenty of guards/forwards who can turn on Oubre to make him go under 13.5 points.

Brad Thomas (@MrBradThomas) goes back to the well for this Philly player plug: Guerschon Yabusele o6.5 Rebounds (-120)
“Yabusele has pulled down at least 7 boards in 10 of the 15 games in which he has seen at least 30 minutes. No Embiid or Drummond means he should get the nod in the starting center role against a team that gives up the eighth most boards to centers
