Philadelphia 76ers vs New York Knicks: Both teams are struggling with injuries

The Philadelphia 76ers are visiting the New York Knicks on Tuesday at Madison Square Garden.

The Sixers are not the same without Joel Embiid

The Philadelphia 76ers are sixth in the Eastern Conference with a 36-28 record. After losing three straight games, they won 79-73 in the last one against the Knicks. The Sixers are the team that makes the most free throws per game in the league with 20.7 and are ranked second in free throw percentage with 82.9%. In the absence of Joel Embiid, Tyrese Maxey is the Sixers leading scorer with 26 points per game.

The Knicks are holding on

The New York Knicks are fourth in the Eastern Conference with a 37-27 record. They have lost four of the last six games. The Knicks are sixth in the league with 73 steals per game and are ranked second to last with 23.8 assists per game. Jalen Brunson is the best player on the team, averaging 27.1 points and 6.5 assists per game for the season.

Betting Trends

The Knicks are 3-12 ATS in the last 15 games overall. They are 1-10 ATS at home and 5-2 ATS in the last 7 games in March. The Sixers are 6-14 ATS in the last 20 games overall, 5-2 ATS in the last 7 games on the road and 1-4 ATS in the last 5 games against teams from the Eastern Conference.

Prediction and Conclusion

This is the second straight game between these two teams after the Sixers won 79-73 two days ago in the lowest-scoring game of the season. Both teams shot way under 40% from the field, and it will be interesting to see how that will affect this game. The Sixers are a completely different team without Joel Embiid, but they somehow defeated the Knicks. New York is still hanging on in the top 4 of the conference and has a solid 21-13 record in Madison Square Garden. New York simply cannot play worse than they did in the last game and will be able to bounce back and win this one by covering the -4.5-point spread.
