Heat vs 76ers Player Prop #1: Joel Embiid Over 1.5 Threes (-108)
Joel Embiid has been firing away from three-point range heading into the play-in tournament for the 76ers. He has made two or more threes in four straight games coming into postseason play, averaging just over five attempts per game in the month of April. Look for him to continue shooting aggressively from distance and for him to go over his threes made number in this contest.
Embiid is going to be so influential in this game for the Sixers, like he is in every game he plays for them. But shooting the three effectively will enhance his effectiveness, as he will force defenders to play further up the floor. That will create more chances to generate fouls and to get to the line for easy points to help his team advance to the first round of the playoffs.
Heat vs 76ers Player Prop #2: Kyle Lowry Over 2.5 Rebounds (-110)
Next up on our list of Heat vs 76ers props, we have Kyle Lowry going over 2.5 rebounds. Lowry is a guard who is always willing to do the dirty work to help his team. He has grabbed three rebounds or more in three of his last four outings for the 76ers. We expect him to grab at least three rebounds in this game as well, in a game where it will be all hands on deck for these teams looking to reach the playoffs.
Lowry has averaged just over three rebounds per game this season and has averaged 2.8 boards per game since becoming a member of the Sixers via trade earlier this season. Expect him to continue to eclipse the 2.5 rebound mark in this game, one we expect the Sixers to win on their home floor over Lowry’s former team.
