On Sunday evening, the Philadelphia 76ers will face off against the New York Knicks at Madison Square Garden in Manhattan.
For the game, the 76ers will be without one of their best players, as All-Star guard Tyrese Maxey has been ruled out.
The former Kentucky star has missed each of the previous three games, so this will be his fourth straight out of the lineup.
