Philadelphia 76ers vs New York Knicks Prediction
The Philadelphia 76ers just beat the Knicks on Sunday at MSG, so the road dog has some value at that spot. However, the Knicks remain the healthiest team at home, and it has been reported that Anunoby makes his return. While Maxey is back for the 76ers, they are still sidelined by Covington, Melton and Embiid. The Knicks have seen 21 of their 37 wins this season at home. The road team has won 7 of the last 10 games between the 76ers and Knicks, but I like New York to get some revenge in this spot. I’ll give the Knicks the reasonable number.
