4* NBA *Marquee Matchup* (ESPN) on 76ers -2.5
The Mavs are at a disadvantage tonight because of their lack of backcourt depth. Delonte West, their best perimeter defender is likely out until mid-March with a dislocated finger. Rodrique Beaubois is expected to miss tonight's game due to personal reasons and Jason Terry is expected to miss with a quad injury. These absences don't bode well for the Mavs as they go up against one of the deepest team in the league tonight.

The 76ers enter off a loss but are 9-1 ATS in their last 10 games following a defeat. They are also 15-6 ATS in their last 21 games as a favorite. We'll lay the points.
