The Philadelphia 76ers host the New York Knicks Saturday at 3 p.m. ET<\/a>. New York had lost nine of its past 11 games before beating the Brooklyn Nets by 54 points Wednesday night. <\/p>\n Knicks vs. 76ers will air on ABC, and streams live on fuboTV (free trial)<\/a>.<\/p>\n What: NBA regular season<\/p>\n Who: New York Knicks vs. Philadelphia 76ers<\/p>\n When: Saturday, Jan. 24, 2026<\/p>\n Where: Xfinity Mobile Arena, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania <\/p>\n Time: 3 p.m. ET<\/p>\n TV: ABC<\/p>\n Live stream: fuboTV (free trial)<\/a>, DIRECTV (free trial)<\/a><\/p>\n Here\u2019s a recent NBA story via the Associated Press:<\/p>\n NEW YORK (AP) \u2014 The New York Knicks hadn\u2019t won at all in more than a week. They had never won like this in 80 years.<\/p>\n The Knicks ended their four-game losing streak Wednesday night with the most lopsided victory in franchise history, beating the Brooklyn Nets 120-66.<\/p>\n Jalen Brunson and the starters were already done for the night after three quarters, with the Knicks ahead 88-56. But instead of coasting to the finish, the reserves poured it on, outscoring the Nets 16-0 to open the fourth as the lead ballooned to 104-56.<\/p>\n \u201cWe\u2019ve been in the midst of a pretty rough stretch and it\u2019s not about just one game right now. There\u2019s got to be a continual pursuit for us getting better and growing,\u201d swingman Landry Shamet said. \u201cSo, fourth-quarter blowout, cool, whatever. It\u2019s an opportunity against a talented NBA team to build and grow on some of the things that we\u2019re trying to grow on and get better at. So kudos to our guys continuing to carry the standard and finish out the right way.\u201d<\/p>\n Brunson scored 20 points and Shamet had 18 in just 15 minutes, going 6 for 6 from 3-point range. The Knicks shot 57.5% from the field and led by as much as 59 points.<\/p>\n The Knicks had lost nine of their previous 11 games and were just two days removed from the low point of their season. They trailed by 30 points in the first half Monday at home against Dallas, booed repeatedly in their 114-97 loss.<\/p>\n The 54-point victory surpassed three 48-point wins that had stood as the previous franchise record. Karl-Anthony Towns, a target of some of the boos Monday, was asked what the Knicks needed Wednesday.<\/p>\n \u201cA win. That was the most important thing, just finding a way to break the ice and get one in the left column,\u201d Towns said. \u201cSo good game, good day for us to show what we\u2019re capable of, but consistency is what makes champions and we\u2019ve got to find that consistency and bring this kind of intensity and energy and execution every single night.\u201d<\/p>\n They certainly do it against the Nets. They have won the last 13 meetings in a three-year winning streak and have handed Brooklyn its two worst losses of this season. The Knicks won 134-98 on Nov. 9 at Madison Square Garden.<\/p>\n \u201cTonight was even worse and I\u2019m the one responsible for it,\u201d Nets coach Jordi Fernandez said.<\/p>\n The Knicks limited the Nets to 29% shooting, outscored them 12-0 in second-chance points and 29-4 on the fast break.<\/p>\n But New York is a team built to compete for a championship and the Nets are headed for the lottery. The Knicks know a more realistic test comes Saturday when they visit the Philadelphia 76ers, who won both matchups this season in New York.<\/p>\n \u201cThis was a good step for us,\u201d Brunson said, \u201cbut we\u2019ve got to continue to press the issue of getting better every single day.\u201d<\/p>\n Can I bet on the game? <\/p>\n Yes, you can bet<\/a> on the game from your phone in New York State, and we\u2019ve compiled some of the best introductory offers<\/a> to help navigate your first bets from BetMGM<\/a>, FanDuel<\/a>, DraftKings<\/a>, Bet365<\/a> and more.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"If you purchase a product through a link on our site, we may receive compensation.
