The Philadelphia 76ers play host to the New York Knicks at 7:30 p.m. ET on Wednesday, Feb. 11, in a battle of two of the top teams in the Eastern Conference. The Knicks fell to the Pacers on Tuesday but have still won eight of their last 10 as they try and keep up with Detroit and Boston atop the conference. The 76ers are sixth in the East and have won six of their last 10, with their last game being a loss to Portland. 

This is the fourth and final meeting between these teams this regular season, with the 76ers winning two of the first three matchups, though the Knicks won the last game between these sides a few weeks ago. 

We've put together a three-leg NBA same-game parlay for this Eastern Conference tilt, which includes Philadelphia All-Star Tyrese Maxey, who is in the midst of a breakout campaign as one of the top scorers in the NBA. All odds for this parlay are courtesy of FanDuel Sportsbook, and recommendations come from the SportsLine Projection Model, which simulates every NBA game 10,000 times.
