The Knicks open their most anticipated campaign in decades with a preseason game against the 76ers in Abu Dhabi.
After a roller-coaster postseason run that ended in disappointment, the Knicks have a team with its same core but a few new faces, including at head coach.
Thursday’s matchup between the Knicks and Sixers likely won’t see many minutes from the star players on either side, but oddsmakers still offered bettors a spread for this game. The Knicks enter the game as 5.5-point favorites with the over/under sitting at 217.5 points.

What our Post expert thinks about Knicks vs. 76ers
The Knicks are expected to play at a much faster pace and shoot more 3-pointers this season, based on interviews with Knicks head coach Mike Brown.
The Knicks finished fifth in offense last season but 26th in Pace, according to NBA Advanced Stats.
As for Thursday’s game, Brown is expected to give his bench plenty of minutes to work out battles for spots at the back end of the rotation. The Knicks have three veteran players competing for one spot unless the team decides to make a trade before the regular season.
