Tyrese Maxey followed his stellar game against the Lakers with a 30-point outing as the still-shorthanded Sixers pulled away for the win.

Jokić is back in his familiar position atop the fantasy leaderboard following a week he opened by extending a triple-double streak to five games before closing out his three-game schedule with an impressive double-double.

Opponents paint a portrait of one of the NBA’s up-and-coming defenders so convincing that they are open about wanting him on their team.

Maxey gives reason for observers to believe in the Sixers if Embiid is healthy and returns to the lineup, citing how they played well in December when they had their three-star lineup.

The Sixers entered Tuesday night losers of six consecutive games, and things were not going to get any easier as they concluded their three-game road trip. With Joel Embiid still out due to increased swelling in his left knee, the undermanned Sixers took on three-time NBA MVP Nikola Jokić, altitude and the Denver Nuggets.

Following an 0-3 road trip that took them past the regular season's midway point, the shorthanded Sixers are tumbling into Friday’s matchup against the Eastern Conference-leading Cleveland Cavaliers.

The 76ers reached the halfway point of their 2024-25 season, facing the team they began their season against, the Bucks.

As the Sixers' disastrous season only gets tougher, they must ensure their young star point guard carries a reasonable workload.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Nikola Jokić continue to set the Kia MVP pace for each other and the rest of the field.
