Live Coverage of the New York Knicks vs Philadelphia 76ers NBA Game
2-0 Deficit Looms Large for 76ers
Harris and Oubre Need to Step Up
**New York, NY** - The Philadelphia 76ers find themselves in a must-win situation as they prepare to face the New York Knicks tonight in Game 3 of their NBA Eastern Conference semifinal series. The Sixers trail the Knicks 2-0 after dropping the first two games in Philadelphia. The Sixers will need a big performance from Tobias Harris and Kelly Oubre if they want to have a chance at closing the gap in this series. Harris, who is averaging just 8.5 points per game on 38.9% shooting from the field, has been a major disappointment in the playoffs. Oubre, who was acquired from the Phoenix Suns in February, has also struggled to find his footing in the postseason. The Knicks, meanwhile, have been led by the stellar play of Julius Randle and RJ Barrett. Randle is averaging 28.5 points and 11.5 rebounds per game in the playoffs, while Barrett is averaging 24.0 points and 8.5 rebounds per game. The game will tip off at 7:30 p.m. ET on ESPN.
