NEW YORK — The Sixers snapped the Knicks’ seven-game winning streak and earned a high-quality victory Friday night at Madison Square Garden. They notched a 116-107 win to improve to 15-11 this season. New York fell to 19-8.

Tyrese Maxey also returned after a 2-game absence with an illness and put up 30 points and eight assists as the Sixers knocked off the Knicks 116-107 on the road. Philadelphia played some terrific defense as it held New York to 8-for-32 shooting from beyond the arc leading to a big win.

The Philadelphia 76ers outlasted the New York Knicks in a thriller at Madison Square Garden on Friday, ending the home team’s seven-game winning streak with a 116- 107 victory. The Sixers entered the matchup without the services of Joel Embiid (illness/knee), but saw the return of Tyrese Maxey from his two-game absence (illness).

When the Sixers and Knicks face off at Madison Square Garden, chaos and intensity typically ensue. That was no different on Friday night.

Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey might not be suiting up for the Sixers on Sunday in their road game against the Hawks.

Philadelphia 76ers legend Allen Iverson comes in ranked highly on a list of the top players of the 21st century.

George has come into his second season with the Sixers with a lot to prove and he understands the expectations that come along with it.

The 76ers return to the court to face the New York Knicks Friday night, but you won’t find the game on NBC Sports Philadelphia or anywhere else on TV.
