Injuries and Player Matchups

Prediction
With T. Maxey back in action for the Philadelphia 76ers and the team looking to bounce back from recent losses, they are poised to cover the +8.5 points spread against the Milwaukee Bucks.
Maxey's return adds depth to the 76ers' roster and provides them with a potent scoring threat. The 76ers will look to capitalize on Maxey's offensive prowess and utilize their defensive capabilities to limit the Bucks' scoring opportunities.
