Game Highlights: Maxey’s 54 Leads Sixers to Overtime Victory
very much similar to what the 76ers go through when Joel’s not around. A guy who knows all about that, Doc Rivers, obviously the head coach as Paul George makes it five early tonight here in Milwaukee inside. He’s got good length. Nice shot from about 18 to 20 as well. First start of the season tonight for Bobby George looking for more and Paul George is scorching hot to start this one tonight. Just off the board regardless. And that was just an awkward looking play. Oh my BJ off the Paul George pass. Not happy with that whistle. This is the lob. Paul putting it in a spot where VJ can finish easily. One more look again. Perfect pass. Good defense. Second seal of this first quarter by Jay E. Tyrese for three. Out for at least the next couple of weeks with a groin injury. Sixers without Kelly UbΓ© Jr. for at least the next couple of weeks. What a shot from Tyrese Maxi. And then this off the wrong foot. You can see no Joel Embiid, no Kelly Jr. Noah Dembona for your Sixers tonight. Another steal for the Sixers. Tyrese little hazy. Little left-handed layup for Tyrese Maxi. Final shot of this first quarter. Eisenhower. Maybe the first push. Jared McCay sets his feet, fires, and gets the roll. That’s Andre Drummond who struggled with injuries last year as well and was so happy to be back in Philly. Both of those dudes looking to show out this season. Great look as Edwards first bucket for tournament tonight, but he had four threes against Cleveland on Monday. Look at Tyrese Maxi. Look at Tyrese Maxi. Figure out how Tyrese Maxi got past him. Our GMZ driving the game. Nice split of the double team at the top of the three-point line right here. Look at that. And then the little shake. Starting point guard for Milwaukee. That’s our starting point guard, Ty Ree Maxi. 20 in the first half for Maxi. Tyrese Maxi from the logo to tie us at 55. Fancy move. Just rolled off the rim. Yeah, trying to avoid the contact. Go up. We talk about that confrontation. Tyrese Maxi all the way. He’s got 25. Green up for the rebounds. Boozma has it stripped away by George with hands by PG. Uhoh. VJ Edgecomb with a jam. I asked her what’s it like to be the second greatest shooter in the history of Iowa. Not Northern Iowa, in the history of the entire state. Great block by Dominic Barlo. This is an earlier Barlo block. Trent Jr. No Yiannis, no Joel Embiid, no UbΓ©, no Adona. Good interception there by Watford. Tyrese Maxi and the Sixers have retaken the lead. Nice steel. Watford playing the passing lanes. Finds before he got going. Three-point game. Maxi hits the brakes and hits the fadeaway. 37 for Maxi. So well efficient from the field. Pull ahead. [Applause] Maxi Wow from the logo. Count it for Tyrese Maxi. There it is. George and Grimes combining for the stop. Yeah, good conversion there. BJ Edge. Tyrese Maxi got to get a shot off Edwards from the free throw line. Huge from Justin Edwards. Grimes pulls it back out. Rises and hits. Quinton Grimes is
The Sixers took down Milwaukee in an overtime thriller behind Tyrese Maxey’s career-high 54 points! Paul George also added 21 points in just 25 minutes of play in the victory.
