Joel Embiid is back and the Philadelphia 76ers are down only 2-1 in their series against the Miami Heat. They’ll look to even things up as the two teams meet up for Game 4 tonight at Wells Fargo Center. Tip-off is at 8:00 pm ET on TNT and I’ve prepared a same game parlay which you can find below.

Let’s get into it!
Philadelphia 76ers ML (-120)
Danny Green to score 15+ points (+600)
Parlay odds: +978
Philadelphia 76ers ML (-120)
Getting back Joel Embiid was a massive confidence boost for the 76ers as they ran past the Heat 99-79 in Game 3. Embiid didn’t put up the highest of numbers with 18 points and 11 rebounds, but his presence alone is what lifted the 76ers to a win. Players like Danny Green and Tyrese Maxey each had 21 points, while James Harden also chipped in with 17 and 6 assists. Embiid also held Bam Adebayo to just 9 points after he had over 20 in the first 2 games. Philadelphia’s defense in general was just on another level as they held the Heat under 20 points in 3 of the 4 quarters.
I believe the 76ers have a solid chance of pulling it off once again in tonight’s game, as these teams are evenly matched when they have all their players available. The 76ers have won 6 of their last 7 home games, plus against Miami they are 12-3 SU in their last 15 at home. There is a great chance that this series will be 2-2 before we head to Miami for Game 5.

Danny Green to score 15+ points (+600)
I’m actually pleasantly surprised we are getting these odds for Green to score 15 points, after his fabulous performance in Game 3. He knocked down 7-of-9 threes and led his team in scoring with 21 points. This man plays completely different at home than on the road, he’s now scored in double-figures in 3 straight games at Wells Fargo and is averaging 15.3 points during that stretch (2 games vs Toronto and 1 game vs Miami).
Assuming Embiid is still hurting from the ligament injury in his finger and the orbital fracture in his skull, his teammates will have to do the heavy lifting offensively once more here. Green has shown on a number of occasions the 76ers can count on him when it matters the most, and I believe he can string together another solid performance tonight as the 76ers even this series at 2-2 at home.
