The New York Knicks triumphed over the Philadelphia 76ers 111-99 in an NBA Cup clash, showcasing their revamped rosters aimed at challenging the Boston Celtics. The Knicks' victory highlighted their balanced offensive strategy, with OG Anunoby leading the team with 24 points.

Meanwhile, the 76ers, bolstered by All-Star Paul George and others, struggled to find their rhythm. Joel Embiid's limited minutes due to injury and suspension contributed to the team's challenges, despite George's strong performance.
