What to Know

The New York Knicks will play host again and welcome the Philadelphia 76ers to Madison Square Garden, where tip-off is scheduled for 1 p.m. ET Sunday. Philadelphia will be strutting in after a victory while the Knicks will be stumbling in from a loss.

New York received a tough blow this past Friday as they fell 115-100 to the Miami Heat. Shooting guard Evan Fournier wasn’t much of a difference maker for New York; Fournier played for 36 minutes with.

A well-balanced attack led the Sixers over the Minnesota Timberwolves every single quarter on their way to victory this past Friday. Philadelphia really took it to Minnesota for a full four quarters, racking up a 133-102 win on the road. The 76ers relied on the efforts of James Harden, who shot 5-for-7 from downtown and almost finished with a triple-double on 27 points, 12 assists, and eight rebounds, and center Joel Embiid, who dropped a double-double on 34 points and ten boards.

The Knicks are expected to lose this next one by 7.5. Those sticking with them against the spread have guts, to put it politely, as the team has let down bettors in their past four games.

New York was able to grind out a solid win over the Sixers in the teams’ previous meeting last November, winning 103-96. Will New York repeat their success, or does Philadelphia have a better game plan this time around? We’ll find out soon enough.
