76ers' hard-working Tyrese Maxey joins exclusive fraternity with 54-point, nine-assist performance
Maxey’s remarkable performance came one night after he played 39 minutes in a 121-112 loss to the Toronto Raptors. The 76ers have leaned on Maxey even more heavily because injuries have limited the availability of 2023 MVP Joel Embiid and six-time All-NBA wing Paul George.
Philadelphia pushed their season record to 9-6 in the Eastern Conference with the win. The 76ers’ latest victory came in a 123-114 overtime win against the Milwaukee Bucks, adding another strong performance to their campaign.
Paul George is among those gushing about Maxey's growth: "This is similar to what Allen Iverson once did for the city."
The Philadelphia 76ers have been treading water this season with Joel Embiid and Paul George, among others, missing time, but Tyrese Maxey has been the biggest constant.
Tyrese Maxey logró 54 puntos, la mejor marca de su carrera, y empató el duelo al convertir dos tiros libres con siete segundos restantes en el cuarto periodo, para que los 76ers de Filadelfia se impusieran el jueves 123-114 a los Bucks de Milwaukee en tiempo extra.
