76ers vs. Warriors Prediction, Spread

The 76ers can’t catch a break. Philadelphia ranks sixth in the Eastern Conference standings despite their health issues this year, and will now have to play most of its remaining games without SF-PF Paul George.

George is serving a 25-game suspension for violating the league’s anti-drug policy and won’t be eligible to play again until the back half of March. The 35-year-old wing isn’t producing like a superstar player anymore and has appeared in just 27 games this season, but averages a respectable 16.0 points, 5.2 rebounds, and 3.2 assists per contest. Luckily for the 76ers, Embiid is looking more like his old self.

The former MVP has steadily increased his workload since the beginning of the 2025-26 season. He notched season highs in minutes (34.2) and points per game (29.2) through 14 games in January after averaging less than 28 minutes per contest in the first two months of the campaign. Only four teams have scored more points per game (117.8) in 2026. However, he hasn’t played in a back-to-back this season. His absence could lend the home team a huge helping hand.

SF-PG Jimmy Butler, the Warriors’ second-leading scorer and an anchor for their defense, suffered a torn ACL in January and won’t play again this season. Golden State has scored the fifth-most points per game (116.7) since Butler went down with a bottom-five scoring defense that’s conceding 119.3 points per contest to opposing teams. The Dubs are 2-4 straight up following Butler’s injury and will need to generate stops to avoid another loss, especially without PG Stephen Curry’s reliable offense. The sharpshooter has been ruled out because of a knee injury.


76ers vs. Warriors Over/Under, Spread

The Warriors are 2.5-point favorites, returning a 1.61x payout on PrizePicks Team Picks if they win outright.

The 76ers will return a 2.22x payout on PrizePicks Team Picks if they win outright.

  • Spread: Warriors -2.5
  • Over/Under: 220.5
  • Gamer Winner Payout: 76ers 2.22x | Warriors 1.61x

Stephen Curry won’t suit up for Golden State, and it’s unclear whether Joel Embiid will play in his first back-to-back of the season. VJ Edgecombe and Brandin Podziemski could get more shots if both stars sit, but they are threats to fall short of expectations as well.
