  • NBA betting trends are helpful to follow.
  • Here’s a look at a fascinating basketball betting development for today.

Tendencies have begun to materialize in NBA betting this season.

Whether it’s a record against the spread that’s been favorable since the beginning of the season or a recent uptick in scoring that has led to a team hitting Overs in recent weeks, paying attention can help with NBA odds.

If you want to bet on NBA games, here’s a look at today’s most interesting trend in the league.

Warriors-76ers NBA Spread Without Stephen Curry

The 76ers are 2-0 against the spread at home this season against teams traveling from the Pacific Time zone. The Warriors are 0-5 ATS when playing at Eastern Time zone teams.

This trend goes back to last season. The Warriors were 7-9 ATS at Eastern Time zone teams. The 76ers are 3-2 ATS when competing at home against those traveling from the Pacific Time zone.

These numbers show the Warriors are typically underperforming when traveling across the country, and the 76ers capitalize when their opponents have to go that far.

The 76ers are 17-13-1 against the spread this season, and the Warriors are 14-18. Golden State won’t have an easier time if some combination of Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, Andrew Wiggins and Draymond Green are out.

Curry is reportedly going to miss about a month with a shoulder injury. The status of the other three is unclear. 

Still, the 76ers might win comfortably by double-digits, considering the circumstances. Philadelphia is a 9.5-point favorite at home against Golden State.
