PHILADELPHIA — Just when it looks like Tyrese Maxey has reached his ceiling, he kicks it up another level. In the Philadelphia 76ers’ win over the Indiana Pacers — while keeping teammate Kelly Oubre Jr. on his mind after he was struck by a car and hospitalized last night — Maxey delivered a masterful performance. […]

The Philadelphia 76ers are handling the James Harden-shaped hole in the middle of their system. It was once a question about whether Tyrese Maxey or Tobias Harris could take up the role of secondary star in the Joel Embiid-led system. But, their game against Tyrese Haliburton’s Indiana Pacers seemed to have answered that question. Maxey […]

On Sunday evening, the Philadelphia 76ers improved to 8-1 on the young 2023-24 season with a 137-126 home victory over the Indiana Pacers.

The Sixers, fueled by a career game from Tyrese Maxey, won a shootout by a final score of 137-126. Let’s break down the Sixers’ win […]

Tyrese Maxey is on his way to being the next Philadelphia 76ers superstar after Joel Embiid. His new Sixers teammate, Robert Covington, is a firm believer of that. Maxey has been sensational since becoming the Sixers’ second option on offense following the James Harden drama and departure. He is a huge reason why Philly is […]

The Philadelphia 76ers asked a lot of Tyrese Maxey to begin the 2023-24 season. He needed to be the replacement for James Harden as the lead initiator of the offense while Harden sought a trade. The 23-year-old Maxey has been leaps and bounds better than advertised for the Sixers, playing a huge part in their […]

Tyrese Maxey has been sensational for the Philadelphia 76ers to start the 2023-24 season, so much so that Philly fans couldn’t help but mock James Harden and emphasize they aren’t missing him at all with the youngster having a breakout campaign. On Friday in the Sixers’ NBA In-Season Tournament showdown with the Detroit Pistons, Maxey […]

The Philadelphia 76ers’ biggest game to date in the 2023-24 season ended with the right result but in the least reassuring fashion possible.

PHILADELPHIA — The Philadelphia 76ers have one of the best offenses in the NBA in the early goings of the 2023-24 season, ranking third in offensive rating.

Despite all the James Harden hullabaloo the Philadelphia 76ers went through in the offseason and into the new campaign, Joel Embiid and co. are off to a flying start to begin the 2023-24 NBA season. Philadelphia has won six straight games since losing to the new-look Milwaukee Bucks in its season opener. Embiid is playing […]

Joel Embiid kicked the Wizards’ butts up and down the court in the third quarter and finished with 48 points. Tyrese Maxey tallied […]

PHILADELPHIA — Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey buried the Washington Wizards to lead the Philadelphia 76ers to their fifth straight win. It took just one play to spark a massive third-quarter run that ignited the Sixers’ 146-128 win. Embiid posted a historic third quarter, scoring 29 points without missing a shot. He’s no stranger to […]

James Harden may have a lot of vitriol reserved for Daryl Morey but he does not forget to appreciate his former teammates.

Another game, another win for the Philadelphia 76ers. The competition hasn’t been super stiff since their opening game against the Milwaukee Bucks but have taken care of business.

The Sixers got rid of the dark cloud […]

The James Harden trade that the world has waited four months and change for finally happened late Monday night. The Philadelphia 76ers traded Harden, PJ Tucker and Filip Petrusev to the Los Angeles Clippers for a package that includes KJ Martin, Nicolas Batum, Marcus Morris Sr., Robert Covington, two future first-round picks, two second-round picks […]

CAMDEN, N.J. — James Harden’s days with the Philadelphia 76ers are over. He’s headed to the Los Angeles Clippers after they finally found a trade package that the Sixers were willing to take. Harden may be happy that he’s gone from the Sixers but Tyrese Maxey is not as enthused. While Maxey may be thriving […]

It’s over. The Philadelphia 76ers have finally traded James Harden. The Sixers endured months of drama that even extended all the way to China, where the 2018 NBA MVP made the world know what he truly felt about GM Daryl Morey and called him a “liar” in front of hundreds of fans, not once, but […]

The Philadelphia 76ers finally did the deed — and it had to be done. After months of drama, James Harden finally got what he wanted: a trade to the Los Angeles Clippers.

The Philadelphia 76ers have picked up their first win of the 2023-24 season by defeating the Toronto Raptors in Nick Nurse’s return.

Maxey has been nothing short […]

The Philadelphia 76ers gave the Milwaukee Bucks a run for their money in their season opener but ultimately lost 118-117 as Damian Lillard dropped 39 on the Sixers in his debut. As we know, one wrong call can change a game in an instant, especially one as close as this. Well, it appears that was […]

The 2023-24 Philadelphia 76ers have now played 48 minutes of regular-season basketball, losing to the Milwaukee Bucks with a failed comeback attempt.

On a certain level, it’s understandable […]

The 2023-24 season didn’t start the way the Philadelphia 76ers had hoped. James Harden remained behind as they hit the road to face the Milwaukee Bucks and ended up losing a close game that they led in the fourth quarter.

While the importance of Joel Embiid to the Philadelphia 76ers doesn’t need to be rehashed, perhaps no other guy is keeping the franchise afloat more than Tyrese Maxey. The Sixers have asked Maxey to grow as a player while withholding his contract extension until next summer in an effort to preserve flexibility. The soon-to-be-23-year-old has […]

The 2020 NBA Draft was filled with high-quality talent. All-Stars Anthony Edwards and LaMelo Ball headline the top of the class. As the 2024 NBA free agency period looms, there are plenty of 2020 rookies who still do not have contract extensions. Those who did not earn extensions will enter a restricted free agency (RFA) […]

PHILADELPHIA — The Philadelphia 76ers closed out their preseason with a win. But more importantly, it gave Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey a chance to work together under new head coach Nick Nurse before the Sixers started playing real games.
