Philadelphia 76ers at Atlanta Hawks

7:40 p.m. ET, NBATV

Line: Hawks –1; Total: 222 points

I am betting on the Under 222 points at BetMGM.

This is the first of a three-day back-to-back, with the second game taking place Saturday at Philadelphia.

Joel Embiid returned to the 76ers Monday after a bout with the flu and Hawks' guard Trae Young is back from a lower leg injury.

Embiid had 33 points and 10 boards to record his fourth double-double of the season. Not the same for Young, who shot 10-of-28 in a 125-119 home loss last night.

The 76ers' bench is better than the Hawks', who were outscored 43-19 last night. Philly's James Hardin remains out, nursing a tendon strain in his right foot, but Tyrese Maxey, despite being so young, is learning quickly how to run the point and doing it quite well.

Situational Trends and Angles

The Hawks are 19-32 ATS (37%) when facing a foe with a top-level defense allowing fewer than 108 points per game over the past two seasons.
The 76ers are 16-5 Under (76%) in the first half of each of the past two seasons and priced as the underdog including pick-em.
The 76ers are 16-5 Under (76%) in the first half of each of the past two seasons and priced as the underdog including pick-em and facing an opponent with a win percentage of 50% or higher.
