The 76ers are coming off a 137-125 win over the Spurs as they march into Madison Square Garden to take on the Knicks.
James Harden struggled for energy in San Antonio, saying “tonight was one of those games where it was difficult to get up,” but the 76ers still made light work of the Spurs.
Joel Embiid posted 33 points and 10 rebounds in an efficient 29 minutes, despite being listed as questionable with a sore left foot.
