Game review

What happened

The 76ers beat the Knicks 98–93 at home. Tyrese Maxey led them with 27 points, and Anfernee Simons added 21. For the Knicks, Jalen Brunson had 24 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists.

What the model got right

Jaylen Brown and Dominick Barlow for the 76ers both missed the game, as the preview expected. Our team-strength rating also had the 76ers as the stronger side (92.9 to 91.5).

What didn't work

The model made the Knicks a slight favourite at 58%, and that was wrong: the 76ers won by 5. Jalen Brunson scored 24 for the Knicks, but it wasn't enough.

Why

The 76ers already rated slightly stronger on paper, so the pick leaned on rest and form, which is a thin margin. Even at 58%, about 4 in 10 games like this go the other way, and this was one of them. It stays on our record like every other result.
