Embiid’s recent performances have been nothing short of dominant, and he’s expected to continue his impressive run.

Statistically, Embiid has been performing well above his season average in the last five games, with an average of 45.0 points and assists combined, which is significantly higher than the line set for this game. His performance against the Pistons specifically has been noteworthy, averaging 41.0 in this category, which suggests he has a good chance of exceeding the prop line once again. Moreover, with the Pistons missing key defensive players like Jalen Duren and Marvin Bagley III, Embiid should have more opportunities to score and assist, as Detroit’s weakened frontcourt will struggle to contain him.

Additionally, the narrative surrounding the 76ers’ current momentum, with a fully healthy roster and Embiid’s leadership, suggests that the team’s offensive flow is likely to be strong. Embiid’s role as a facilitator in this dynamic offense increases the chances of him exceeding the assists prop, as he’ll be instrumental in setting up scoring opportunities against a struggling Pistons defense.
