Game Preview

The 76ers are without Joel Embiid, who might have to undergo complex surgery to end his injury troubles. Knowing the Process and his discipline, we doubt that he might ever be back at his prime level.

Philadelphia has eight straight defeats and is 1-9 in the last ten games. They have been hammered by the Chicago Bulls at home, 142-110. Though said about them.

The Knicks had to battle the Cavaliers and the Celtics on the road, losing both matches. They are back in Madison now, with a few days of rest behind them, waiting for redemption.

Karl-Anthony Towns probably won’t play and that will be a huge blow for the Knicks. KAT scores 24.8 points with 13.5 boards (2nd in the NBA) and shoots 53.2% from the field.

76ers vs. Knicks Betting Trends

  • Total went OVER in 7 of the Knicks’ 9 last games.
