The Los Angeles Lakers and Philadelphia 76ers meet in a marquee matchup on Sunday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The pregame narrative:<\/strong> Luka Doncic is back in the lineup after missing two games (personal), and the Lakers are a slim road favourite as a result. On the other side, Joel Embiid has been upgraded to probable after making his return from injury earlier this week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Check out my +325 Lakers vs. 76ers SGP predictions for Dec. 7, featuring Austin Reaves and Tyrese Maxey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lakers vs. 76ers SGP predictions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Parlay: Lakers +7.5 (+310) | Maxey 25+ points | Reaves under 2.5 threes (+325)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lakers +7.5<\/strong> <\/strong><\/strong>(-670):<\/strong> I expect L.A. to win this game, but am teasing the favourites way<\/em> up to a 7.5 point dog. It’s still a valuable leg in this parlay, too, because it negatively correlates with the player props.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Los Angeles has won eight of its last 10 games, and seven of the last eight with Doncic playing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

LeBron James is questionable tonight, but at this point in his career, I don’t think that’s necessarily a net negative. The King’s defence and shooting efficiency have taken a dive this year as he battles sciatica.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Philly is a mediocre 7-6 at home, and L.A. is 7-4 ATS as a favourite, winning nine of those games outright.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NBA SGP legs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Maxey 25+ points<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong> (<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong>-225):<\/strong> This is Maxey’s team, even when Embiid is on the court. The former scoring champ is a shell of his former self and doesn’t add much offensively when he’s in the lineup. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

L.A. also holds centres to the fewest points per game, according to Fantasy Pros, so this isn’t a great matchup for Embiid to thrive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maxey, on the other hand, should cook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He’s averaging a career high 31.6 PPG and is shooting a solid 38.2% from deep. L.A. still ranks in the top half defensively against point guards, but Maxey takes plenty of shots and has huge upside on a nightly basis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maxey has reached this milestone in his last three games vs. L.A. and scored 43 points against the Lakers in his most recent matchup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reaves under 2.5 threes<\/strong> <\/strong><\/strong>(+112)<\/strong><\/strong>: <\/strong><\/strong><\/strong>This is in no way a knock on Reaves’ ability. The fourth-year guard has “All NBA Team” written all over him, and just went nuclear in two games without Doncic:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
