Sixers still without Joel as they face the Magic next. Some bettors would probably expect an almost guaranteed win for the Magic but I wouldn't be too sure about that. Sixers still has a good line up.
I agree that they have a good line up but we can't deny that they are not as good as they are when they are complete.
Missing their best player has a big impact, the reason why they lose on their previous game, and with the record of the Magic at home which is 11-3, it's hard to neglict that. I'm with the home team here with the -3 spread.

but yeah Jaime Jaquez Jr seeing his stats was really amazing, but that blocking was really what I like about the kid and for sure he didn't let the defense of the Miami Heat gets taken over, latest game on the 76ers he got 31 points for that game and even without Jimmy "Emo" Butler they still win the game and that was thanks to Bam Adebayo and Jaime Jaquez Jr,
I'm not taking anything away from the Heat but they're not that handicapped to "still" win the game. I would say both teams were evenly matched without their main player. No Butler for Heat but also no Embiid for the Sixers.
JJJ is one of the main reason of the Heat's success. Jimmy will not be pressured coming back knowing his team is doing well even without him. I think this credit goes to coach Spo for being good enough in developing unknown players.
