Why the 76ers can cover

Despite personnel challenges, Philadelphia owns the No. 1 offense in the NBA so far this season. The Sixers are scoring 114.3 points per 100 possessions, with top-three marks in true shooting percentage, field-goal percentage and 3-point percentage. Philadelphia generates 1.81 assists for every turnover, a top-five mark in the NBA, and the 76ers are committing a turnover on only 13.3 percent of offensive possessions. With a top-10 free-throw rate to round out the package, the 76ers are difficult for any team to defend. 

On defense, Philadelphia is a top-five team in blocked shots (5.9 per game) and a top-eight team in 2-point shooting defense, with opponents shooting just 50.1 percent inside the arc. The 76ers are also very good at preventing free-throw attempts, which helps to boost overall efficiency on the defensive end.

Why the Jazz can cover

Utah’s statistical profile is elite, and the Jazz also have legitimate star power on both ends. Donovan Mitchell is a tremendous shot creator, and the dynamic guard is averaging 25.6 points per game this season. Mitchell partners with Rudy Gobert as a tremendous pick-and-roll duo, and Gobert anchors a world-class defense. Gobert is averaging 14.9 points, 15.3 rebounds and 1.7 blocks per game, and he is a multi-time recipient of the NBA’s Defensive Player of the Year award. 

Beyond the top two, the Jazz have strong depth, and Utah is elite on both ends of the floor. Utah is out-scoring opponents by 6.7 points per 100 possessions, No. 3 in the NBA, and the Jazz have a profile that is very difficult to defend. Utah is scoring more than 1.12 points per possession for the season, and the Jazz win on the margins with free-throw creation, offensive rebounding and tremendously accurate shooting.
