1.74Tip and bets
The rivals set themselves different tasks. Houston is aiming to bypass Memphis and reach second place in the standings. The team has posted a series of six wins in a row, plus Fred Vanvleet has returned to the floor, who is starting to get in shape.
Philadelphia is trying to cling to the tenth place in the Eastern Conference, although there are not many chances for this. Injuries did not allow the team to reach a new level, but soon we will see Tyrese Maxi on the court, which could somehow change the situation for the better.
