Payne will start at guard in Sunday's game versus the Knicks, Noah Levick of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.

EDGE Analysis

Payne will start opposite Kyle Lowry in the backcourt, as Indiana will opt to bring Buddy Hield off the bench in search of a spark. The last time Payne started for Philly, he recorded 15 points (5-10 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, one assist and one steal over 23 minutes. The Sixers are still without Tyrese Maxey (concussion) on Sunday, but there's hope he could return at some point next week.
