The 76ers gifting Isaiah Joe to OKC was Philly’s thank you for Mike Muscala gifting them Tyrese Maxey. – 1:03 PM

Doc Rivers: “We’ve just got to keep trusting him and giving him the ball. Each night like [Friday] gives everyone more confidence to do that.”

Joel Embiid:“There’s a reason I’m always on him to just let it fly. He’s got to get up 10 to 15 threes a game. That’s how good of a shooter he is.”

Tobias Harris (@Tobias Harris) on playing alongside @Tyrese Maxey:
“Tyrese is special. My wife says, ‘Protect Tyrese at all costs.’
[Tyrese] has this glow about him on the court. Anytime I step on the court with him is an honor.” 🥹 – 11:07 PM

Sixers 90, Bulls 87 at the end of a funky third quarter. Embiid has 20-5-3. Maxey with 14. Both teams are on the second night of a back-to-back, so will be interesting to see how both look down the stretch. – 9:55 PM
Gina Mizell @ginamizell
Maxey’s getting it going on the attack. His driving layup puts the Sixers back in front 82-81 with less than three to play in the period. – 9:47 PM
Noah Levick @NoahLevick
Sixers up 8 at halftime. Embiid, Maxey, Thybulle all with three fouls.
Some strong work by P.J. Tucker (11 points) — timely hammer screen to free Maxey for a 3; stonewalling Vucevic in the post; drilling corner 3s.
De’Anthony Melton again quite valuable and versatile. – 9:16 PM
Rich Hoffman @rich_hofmann
Sixers lead Bulls at halftime, 64-56. They are shooting 10-20 from deep.
Thought they played quite well for most of the half but they only got 19 combined minutes from Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey because of foul trouble. Chicago got back in the game against a small-ball unit. – 9:12 PM
Gina Mizell @ginamizell
Half: Sixers 64, Bulls 56. Chicago roared back with Maxey and Embiid sitting down the stretch with 3 fouls apiece, but Melton and Tucker hit a couple big shots late to keep a bit of a cushion. Embiid has 12 points on 6-of-9 shooting. DeRozan has 20 on 5-of-6 FG and 9-of-10 FTs. – 9:10 PM
Kyle Neubeck @KyleNeubeck
turns out Embiid and Maxey both having three fouls has not been good for the Sixers’ lead – 9:08 PM
Gina Mizell @ginamizell
First player to greet his teammates heading into the timeout: Tyrese Maxey. He looks as giddy with three fouls and his team up 46-30 as he did dropping 44 last night. – 8:46 PM
Keith Pompey @PompeyOnSixers
Now, the Sixers have a lineup House, Melton, Milton, Niang and Harrell after Thybulle and Maxey both have three fouls. – 8:42 PM
Gina Mizell @ginamizell
After last night’s strong performance, Thybulle is the Sixers’ first sub, entering for Maxey. – 8:20 PM
Lauren Rosen @LaurenMRosen
Matisse Thybulle is the @Philadelphia 76ers first sub again tonight, replacing Tyrese Maxey. – 8:20 PM
Ky Carlin @Ky_Carlin
PJ Tucker is such an underrated screen setter. He really gets in front of defenders and that allows his teammates to find open looks. Tucker set a screen to get Maxey open for 3 and then he goes down on the other end and strips Nikola Vuvevic. #Sixers8:20 PM
Keith Pompey @PompeyOnSixers
So far, this games has a sleep-walking feel. #Sixers lead 13-5 with 8:01 left in the first after Tobias Harris’ transition basket.The Bulls call timeout. Harden has four points and three assists. Maxey has two fouls. – 8:19 PM

More on this storyline

The Sixers know it, and want to see more of it. “That’s why I’ve been on him,” Embiid said. “He’s one of the best shooters and he has the potential to be up there. You know, a great stroke. He can really shoot the ball, great form and he makes them. “There’s a reason I’m always on him to just let it fly. He’s got to get up 10 to 15 threes a game. That’s how good of a shooter he is.” -via The Philadelphia Inquirer / October 30, 2022
Tyrese Maxey scored a career-high 44 points, carrying the Philadelphia 76ers without Joel Embiid to a 112-90 victory over the Toronto Raptors on Friday night. Embiid sat out because of a sore right knee. A five-time All Star and the reigning NBA scoring champion, Embiid is averaging 27.6 points and 10 rebounds in five games. -via ESPN / October 29, 2022
