Philadelphia 76ers guard Tyrese Maxey was itching to get back on the court after missing three weeks due to a finger injury. When he got his chance on Saturday, Maxey delivered. The sixth-year guard scored 26 points on 10-for-18 shooting, along with grabbing seven rebounds and handing out eight assists. That included seven points, four rebounds and three assists in the fourth quarter as Philadelphia took the lead in a crucial road win.
I let the game come to me at the beginning, said Maxey. Everybody was like, 'Dude, all right. We know you just got back. Come on, let's play.' And I was like, 'I got you.' Joel Embiid and Paul George also played for the Sixers. This was the first time that Philadelphia has had Maxey, Embiid and George in the lineup at the same time since January 29.
