Tyrese Maxey's Near Double-Double Fuels Sixers' Victory Over Celtics
Tyrese Maxey played a pivotal role in the Philadelphia 76ers' 102-100 win over the Boston Celtics on Tuesday, notching 21 points, nine assists, five rebounds, and one steal across 34 minutes. Despite shooting 5-of-17 from the field, he was efficient from deep (3-6 3Pt) and perfect from the line (8-8 FT). Maxey displayed strong chemistry with Trendon Watford early on and became more aggressive in the third quarter, hitting a key three-pointer to give the Sixers a 66-63 lead. In the game's final moments, after missing two tightly guarded shots, he found Justin Edwards open, whose subsequent miss led to Kelly Oubre Jr.'s game-winning put-back layup.
