Free New York Knicks vs. Philadelphia 76ers NBA Prediction:
Thursday, February 27th, Atlantic Division rivals the New York Knicks face the Philadelphia 76ers in the clubs’ fourth and final meeting of the season. The 76ers won all three previous meetings.
Moreover, the 76ers are on a current 11-game win streak versus the Knicks. Both teams are playing in the front end of a back-to-back set with the Knicks in Charlotte and the 76ers in Cleveland.
Last season, the teams played four times with Philly sweeping the season series. The 76ers hold the all-time record having bested the Knicks in 255 of their 456 matches
New York Knicks
At the time of posting the Knicks are trailing in Charlotte and arrived there on a four-game losing streak. If that holds up they’ll hit Philly seeking to avoid a sixth straight loss.

That said, all three of the previous meetings between these clubs this season were close battles. The largest win margin was six points, so the Knicks will hope the 76ers sleep on them in order to snatch the trap game victory.
Prior to the Hornets match, the Knicks got ousted in Houston 123-112. In the loss, Julius Randle delivered a double-double of 17 points and 12 rebounds.
Rookie RJ Barrett led his team in scoring with 21 points. The trio of Dennis Smith Jr. (15), Bobby Portis (12), and Mitchell Robinson (10) were the other double-figure contributors.
On the season the team leaders are Julius Randle who leads four Knicks stat categories including scoring (19.0) assists (3.2), rebounding (9.6) and field goal percentage (45.1%). Mitchell Robinson leads blocks (1.9) while. RJ Barrett is tops in steals (0.9).
Wayne Ellington (illness) and Elfrid Payton (ankle) are expected to play while Kenny Wooten (thumb) and Frank Ntilikina (ankle) are out.
Philadelphia 76ers
The 76ers are already missing their All-Star Ben Simmons who is out at least two weeks with a back injury and now might be without their big man as he left the Cavaliers game after sustaining a shoulder sprain.
It was early in the match when Embiid was forced to leave and the Cavaliers responded by building a huge lead. This demonstrates how dire the situation would be if Embiid is out for an extended period.
Prior to the Cavaliers match, the 76ers beat the Hawks and the big man posted a huge double-double of 49 points and 14 rebounds.
On the season, Joel Embiid is the team leader in scoring (23.4) and rebounds (12.8). While Ben Simmons leads the team in another trio of categories including assists (8.2), steals (2.1) and field goal percent (58.5%). Al Horford is tops in blocks (0.9).
Embiid’s status likely won’t be updated until tomorrow but if both he and Simmons are out it will put pressure on Tobias Harris and Josh Richardson to step up.
Norvel Pelle missed the last game with an upper-respiratory illness and won’t dress for this match.
