The Philadelphia 76ers hung on for a much-needed overtime victory over the Charlotte Hornets on Sunday to snap a five-game losing streak and improve to 2-7 on the season. Meanwhile, the New York Knicks lost to the Indiana Pacers in their last game to fall to 4-5.

The Knicks have won seven of their last 10 against the Sixers. New York will look to continue its dominance, while Philadelphia will hope to get a spark from Joel Embiid in his season debut.

Our Knicks vs. 76ers player props look at two of Philadelphia’s Big 3 players and New York’s high-scoring floor general.

The Eastern Conference rivals clash at 7:30 p.m. ET from Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia on Tuesday.

Embiid appeared in only 39 games last season and opened the 2024-25 campaign on the sidelines. He was poised to return to action last week before getting slapped with a three-game suspension for shoving a columnist.

The fact that Embiid was ready to return a week ago means health shouldn’t be a major concern for his season debut. It’s unclear if he’ll face a minutes restriction, but with Tyrese Maxey sidelined and the team just 2-7, he’s sorely needed.

Embiid has averaged 32.8 points per game across the last three seasons, and he’s posted at least 26 in 154 of 199 games (regular season and playoffs). That’s good for a whopping 77.38% of his appearances since the 2021-22 campaign, which means we’re getting this prop at a monster bargain for -110 odds.

Jalen Brunson Over 36.5 points + rebounds + assists ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Best odds: -105 via BetMGM | Implied probability: 51.22%

Brunson cooked in his last game out, going for 33 points, 10 assists, and six boards against the Indiana Pacers on Sunday. He turned it on in November, averaging 26.8 points, 3 rebounds, and 7.2 dimes, good for 37 PRAs.

His PRAs through five November games are up from the 31.4 he averaged in four October contests, and we’re betting on him extending that hot streak against the Sixers. Brunson has hit the Over in three of his last five.

Brunson averaged only 33.1 PRAs in four regular-season matchups with Philly last season, but he went berserk with 35.5 points, 4.5 rebounds, and nine assists in six playoff games against the Sixers. With Joel Embiid back in action, the Sixers surely won’t roll over, meaning Brunson must be at his best here.

Paul George Over 4.5 assists ⭐⭐⭐

Best odds: +105 via BetMGM | Implied probability: 48.78%

George dished only 3.5 assists in 2023-24, which was his lowest mark since the 2017-18 season. He averaged better than five assists per game in each of the three seasons prior.

George has only logged four games in 2024-25, but he’s averaging 5.8 assists after handing out 17 total across the Sixers’ last two games. Maxey sat out those two games and will be sidelined again tonight. 

With Maxey out, George should handle more responsibilities as a primary facilitator on Tuesday. After handing out eight or more in two straight, his assists line and plus-money odds are far too juicy to pass up. We’re hammering the Over.
