In the first half of their game against the Bucks, Maxey had racked up 24 points, four rebounds, and five assists. He was well on his way to having a great night. However, he suffered an injury as a result of a foul that occurred late in the half, and he finally left the game for good.

The 76ers have high hopes that Maxey, Joel Embiid, who is a regular contender for Kia MVP, and a healthy James Harden will all be able to contribute to the team’s ability to move beyond the second round of the playoffs for only the second time since 1985.
