The Philadelphia 76ers will wrap up a five-game road trip on Saturday against the New York Knicks at Madison Square Garden. A win would give the Sixers a 3-2 road record and would also give the Sixers a 2-0 lead over the rival Knicks in the season series, with the final two games set to be played in Philadelphia.
As far as the injury report goes, Trendon Watford (left adductor strain) will remain sidelined. He hasn’t played since Nov. 25 as he’s still working through the issue.

Kelly Oubre Jr. (left knee sprain), who has not played since Nov. 14, will be sidelined with the injury. He hopes to return to the court as soon as possible and help the 76ers advance in the standings.
As for Joel Embiid (right knee injury management), he is listed as possible. He’s been able to string some games together, so the Sixers hope he can continue to move in the right direction. It’s also important to note that the right ankle sprain tag on him has been removed as it’s now just a right knee injury.
The 76ers and Knicks will tip off Saturday at 7:30 p.m. ET.
