The Philadelphia 76ers are set to host the New York Knicks as the two teams meet for the fourth time this season.

Re-invigorated at home and playing with a rest advantage, my Knicks vs. 76ers predictions call for Tyrese Maxey to get teammates involved as the home team covers a small spread.

Here are my best free NBA picks for this Eastern Conference tilt on Wednesday, February 11.

Knicks vs 76ers prediction

Knicks vs 76ers best bet: Tyrese Maxey Over 6.5 assists (-115)

Tyrese Maxey’s playmaking will be on full display against the New York Knicks, who are playing the second leg of a back-to-back. The Knicks have surrendered 115 points per game without rest, giving up at least 124 points on four occasions.

With OG Anunoby out and four of five starters logging at least 38 minutes last night, the Knicks' defense is extremely vulnerable. Maxey has recorded 7+ assists in seven of his last eight home games, with the Philadelphia 76ers' point guard averaging 8.0 assists in those contests.

Knicks vs 76ers same-game parlay

New York fell to the Indiana Pacers in overtime last night as 11.5-point home favorites, giving the Sixers a rest advantage after returning home from a five-game road trip.

Joel Embiid has averaged 33.1 points over his last 10 games, reaching 30+ points in eight of them. He’s poised for a big night against a fatigued Knicks defense.
