Knicks vs 76ers Prediction

The current betting odds have the 76ers listed as a 1.5 point underdog in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The 76ers have looked good in their games this season with their 30-23 record overall which has them in the top half of the East. They have looked good on their home court too with their 15-13 home record this season. Meanwhile, the Knicks have looked really good in their games this season with their 34-19 record overall which has them right near the top of the East. They haven't been a good road team this year either with their 12-13 road record. The Knicks are off a big road win over the Celtics in their last one and they have been rolling in their games lately as they are 9-1 in their last 10. As good as they have looked lately, they have been a bit banged up with key players in and out of the lineup, and they aren't in a great situation for this game either. The Knicks are playing this game on a back-to-back and even though they don't have the toughest game the night before against the Pacers, the 76ers are still going to have the rest advantage here. The 76ers haven't been rolling like the Knicks lately, but they are 6-4 in their last 10 games and looked good on their road trip. Now they are off a road loss to the Trail Blazers in their last one, but they will be looking to bounce back now that they are back at home, and they were also missing Embiid in that loss. Embiid should be back for this game which will give the 76ers a boost and they should be able to take advantage of the Knicks on a back-to-back here. The best way to place a bet here is on the 76ers to cover the spread in this game.

Notable Quotes


"He brings a level of toughness to this team, his energy is unmatched. What he can do defensively in the full court and even in the front court with the ball especially on the pick-and-rolls and stuff, is at a pretty high level.” - Mike Brown on what Jose Alvarado adds to the team.


"I would say, how many games is that, five? Four and a half really good games. I think there’s a half tonight or a quarter here tonight that’s really bad. One quarter in LA, but most of it was really good basketball. Not bad." - Nick Nurse after his team’s loss against the Trail Blazers in their game on Monday.
