76ers, Bucks Expected to Meet October 24

The undefeated Philadelphia 76ers host the winless Milwaukee Bucks on Saturday night, with Philadelphia favored to extend its strong start. The Sixers rallied from a large halftime deficit to beat Cleveland 114-106, powered by Tyrese Maxey, Joel Embiid and a 69-point second half; VJ Edgecombe has also stood out for his composure and all-around play. Milwaukee is seeking to rebound from a narrow loss to Chicago, while Philadelphia’s injury report lists four players and Milwaukee has none listed. One prediction gives the 76ers a 76.4% chance to win, though the teams’ recent results and season outlook make the matchup a test of Philadelphia’s momentum against a Bucks team trying to turn things around.
