The Philadelphia 76ers, on the other hand, are third in the Eastern Conference behind the Boston Celtics and the Milwaukee Bucks, who occupy first and second positions, respectively.

Golden State Warriors vs Philadelphia 76ers lineups and key players
Golden State Warriors projected starting lineup:
Point guard: Stephen Curry
Shooting guard: Klay Thompson
Small forward: Andrew Wiggins
Power forward: Jonathan Kuminga
Center: Draymond Green
Stephen Curry is the only reason the Warriors hope to make the playoffs this season. It’s likely via the play-in route, as the Warriors have been poor this season. Stephen Curry averages 27.0 points per game despite how bad of a season the Warriors are having.
Philadelphia 76ers projected starting lineup:
Point guard: Patrick Beverly
Shooting guard: Kelly Oubre Jr.
Small forward: Nicolas Batum
Power forward: Tobias Harris
Center: Paul Reed
Joel Embiid has been on a tear this season. The 76ers won’t be high up in the Eastern Conference standings without him. The reigning MVP is leading the league in points per game with 36. He’s also key to the 76ers paint protection, as he utilizes his size exceptionally well.
76ers vs Warriors predictions and betting tips
Following close defeats against the Kings and Lakers, the Warriors are poised to bounce back enthusiastically against the 76ers. Golden State desperately needs a victory, and with Embiid’s availability uncertain until game day, this presents an opportune moment for them to secure a win.
Even if Joel Embiid takes the court at Chase Center, the Sixers could face challenges, particularly on the second night of a back-to-back schedule. Considering Tyrese Maxey’s questionable status and the Warriors’ ample rest leading up to the matchup, the odds favor Golden State emerging victorious in this contest.
The pick here is for the Golden State Warriors to win against the Philadelphia 76ers.
Betting prediction: Golden State Warriors to win
