After a 2-2 road trip without Joel Embiid, the Philadelphia 76ers returned home with Joel Embiid back in the lineup and obliterated the Chicago Bulls on Tuesday night (even with the deep bench going without scoring for the final eight minutes of the game). With an extra two days of rest under their belt, the Sixers will be back at it again on The Center’s hardwood against the rival New York Knicks.
Despite losing starting center Mitchell Robinson for the season last month due to an ankle injury, the Knicks are hanging in there at 19-15 on the season, 5-5 in their last 10 games.
