Maxey's scoring prowess has kept the Sixers afloat all season. He recently joined Wilt Chamberlain, Allen Iverson and Joel Embiid as the only Sixers to score 28 points or more in 11 consecutive games.

Tuesday night’s matchup between the Philadelphia 76ers and the Los Angeles Lakers at the Wells Fargo Center had some big names from the NFL in attendance. Philadelphia Eagles receivers AJ Brown and DeVonta Smith were among many players from the NFC Championship-winning squad to attend Tuesday night’s battle.

The Philadelphia 76ers needed their young star to step up to the plate on Tuesday when they played host to LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers. The Lakers were riding a 4-game winning streak and the Sixers were once again playing short-handed without their stars.
