With a 131-109 final score, we saw some extended garbage time in this one. The Knicks kept it close for a half and trailed by only eight points at the break. But by the third quarter, the Sixers stepped on the gas and left New York in their dust. For Philly, it’s their sixth win in a row against the Knicks dating back to last season. They lead the season series, 2-0.
Jimmy Butler played a hyper efficient game, recording 20 points and 4 assists on just 9 shots. The Sixers only had 10 turnovers. Their season low for that category is 9, something they achieved against Miami and Brooklyn.
