Several of the New York Knicks' next few games will take on a playoff-like atmosphere.

The Knicks and their basketball brethren are set to partake in the NBA's second annual in-season competition, which has since been rebranded as the Emirates NBA Cup. Group play gets underway on Tuesday night, Nov. 12, as the 30 teams have been separated into six groups of five, three in each conference.

New York will face some familiar competition in group play in Group A: the affair tips off with a showdown against the revamped Philadelphia 76ers, their victim in the opening round of last spring's postseason. The Knicks will also get a chance to face their cross-borough rivals, the Brooklyn Nets, as well as a fellow recent postseason contender, the Orlando Magic. Also included are the Charlotte Hornets, who fell to the Knicks during group play of last season's inaugural activities.

The Knicks were one of the most pleasant surprises of the first competition, as they earned a bid to the eight-team knockout round as the Eastern Conference's wild card entrant. The Los Angeles Lakers, stationed in the West's Group B, are looking to defend their title, having defeated the Indiana Pacers in the championship final in Las Vegas.

Group Game Recaps

11/12 KNICKS SILENCE SIXERS WITH FANTASTIC FOURTH

The Knicks spoiled Joel Embiid's return to NBA action, taking down their long-standing enemy by a 111-99 final at Wells Fargo Center. Embiid scored 13 points in his return from an injury and a suspension but was limited to a mere two successful shots from the field, his last coming in the final minute of the third quarter. In the fourth, New York scored the first 11 points to boost its lead to 14. OG Anunoby led the way with 24 tallies in the win while Josh Hart put forth a 14-point, 12-rebound, 10-assist triple-double.

11/12 MAGIC STAY PERFECT AT HOME WITH WIN OVER HORNETS

A shared 50-point effort from the Wagner brothers helped the Orlando Magic take an early lead in Group A. The Magic stayed perfect at home despite the continued absence of Paolo Banchero, as Franz Wagner had 32 while Mo had 18 in relief en route to a 114-89 victory over the Charlotte Hornets. The visiting Hornets kept an early pace thanks to LaMelo Ball's 16-point breakout in the opening period en route to a game-best 35 but a 14-0 run consisting entirely of points from the Wagners gave Orlando a permanent double-figure lead.
