Tyrese Maxey scored 43 points to lead a Philadelphia 76ers team without injured Joel Embiid and Paul George to a 118-104 win over the Los Angeles Lakers.

The 76ers star has endured an up-and-down season, but a conversation with his parents helped jumpstart him into a better mindset on the court.

Tyrese Maxey explains why the Philadelphia 76ers can turn their season around and make a playoff push despite their sluggish start in this one-on-one interview.

Surprise: Paul George (finger) is hurt again, and the 76ers continue to stack up more injuries than wins this season.

The Sixers had even fewer bodies by the end of their Saturday night contest against the Bulls than they did when they entered The Windy City.

Maxey racked up a game-high 30 points (12-24 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 5-5 FT), four rebounds, eight assists and one block in 38 minutes during Wednesday's 117-104 win over the Kings.

Maxey scored 43 points for the Sixers, who again played without All-Stars Joel Embiid and Paul George among others.

Tyrese Maxey and Darius Garland, two of the top young point guards in the Eastern Conference, faced off on Friday night. The Sixers snapped their seven-game losing streak in the most impressive way possible, outlasting the Cavaliers and their NBA-best record Friday night 132-129.

A whole flock of Philadelphia Eagles sat courtside at Tuesday night's Sixers game against the Los Angeles Lakers and rang the bell.

Tyrese Maxey scored 43 points to lead a Philadelphia 76ers team without injured Joel Embiid and Paul George to a 118-104 win over the Los Angeles Lakers on Tuesday night.

Tyrese Maxey had 31 points and nine assists, Kelly Oubre Jr. added 22 points and 12 rebounds and the Philadelphia 76ers beat the Chicago Bulls 109-97 on Saturday night for their second straight victory.
