New York Knicks vs Philadelphia 76ers Starting Lineups and Depth Charts for Game 3

The New York Knicks and the Philadelphia 76ers' 2024 NBA Playoffs first-round series shifts to Fiserv Forum starting Thursday for Games 3 and 4. The Knicks have taken a 2-0 lead in the series after a couple of close wins that could have gone either way. With the 76ers boasting homecourt advantage, the series could be tied over the next few days.

Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey's production has been solid, while the Sixers' role players also improved in Game 2. Meanwhile, the Knicks are yet to see the best of Jalen Brunson, but the rest of the group has played remarkably well, keeping the Knicks at an advantage in the first two games.

Game 2 ended in a melee, with the Knicks edging the Sixers in a 104-101 in a thrilling finish. The 76ers were up five with 47 seconds left, but a Jalen Brunson 3 followed by a controversial in-bounds play that resulted in an open shot for Donte DiVincenzo from downtown saw the Knicks storm back to take a 102-101 lead.

Isaiah Hartenstein blocked a potential game-tying layup from Tyrese Maxey, which sealed the Knicks' 104-101 win after OG Anunony had sunk two free throws. Maxey finished with 34 points, while Embiid had 35 for the 76ers.
