Meeting for the first time since their East First Round clash in the playoffs, the Knicks and 76ers face off in the NBA Cup Group Stage at Wells Fargo Center.
The Knicks came out on top in that playoff series, winning in six hard-fought games.
Last time on the floor, Philadelphia snapped a five-game losing streak by edging Charlotte 107-105 in overtime at this venue, fueled by Jared McCain’s career-high 27-point performance. The 76ers were without Tyrese Maxey (out), but Joel Embiid is set to make his season debut on Tuesday.
New York fell 132-121 to Indiana at Gainbridge Fieldhouse on Sunday despite standout efforts from Jalen Brunson, who recorded 33 points, six rebounds (season-high), and 10 assists (season-high), and Karl-Anthony Towns, who contributed 30 points and nine rebounds.

Last time out, the Jazz pulled off a 111-110 upset over San Antonio at Frost Bank Center, breaking a seven-game losing streak in conference play.

That loss ended Phoenix’s seven-game winning streak. Jusuf Nurkic is listed as questionable for the Suns.
The Suns come into the game with a six-game winning streak against the Jazz, with four of those wins coming from their sweep of last season’s series. Kevin Durant (out) played a pivotal role in that series, averaging 33.5 points, 7.3 rebounds, and 8.3 assists.

Returning home from a five-game road trip, the Warriors host the Mavericks in the NBA Cup Group Stage at Chase Center.
Last time on the floor, Golden State secured a 127-116 win over Oklahoma City at Paycom Center, thanks to Stephen Curry’s 36-point, seven-assist performance, which included seven three-pointers on 13-23 shooting. Andrew Wiggins added 18 points, eight rebounds, and a season-high three steals.
The Warriors have now won six straight games when Curry shoots 55.0% or better from the field.
Dallas narrowly lost to Denver 122-120 at Ball Arena on Sunday. Despite Kyrie Irving’s season-high 43-point outburst on 17-22 shooting and Luka Doncic’s near triple-double (24 points, nine rebounds, nine assists), the Mavericks have dropped five of their last six road games.
This will be their first matchup of the 2024-25 season. The Mavericks took last season’s series 3-1, with the Warriors’ only victory coming at home.
