The Philadelphia 76ers defeated the San Antonio Spurs, 133-126 in a double-overtime thriller. Tyrese Maxey led Philadelphia with a career-high 52 points, along with 5 rebounds, and 7 assists. Victor Wembanyama totaled 33 points, 18 rebounds, 7 blocks, 6 assists, and 5 3PM for San Antonio in the loss. The 76ers win their fifth in a row as they move to 44-35 while the Spurs move to 19-59.
With his game today (33 PTS, 18 REB, 5 3PM, 6 AST, 7 BLK), Victor Wembanyama is the ONLY PLAYER to ever record a 30+ PTS, 15+ REB, 5+ AST, 5+ 3PT, 5+ BLK game since 1979-80, the first season of the three-point rule. The first player in NBA history with such a line.
Embiid and Maxey both have three 50+ PT games on the year, only Wilt Chamberlain (5 in 1965-66 and 4 in 1967-68) has more such games in a season.
Wilt Chamberlain – 5 games in 1965-66
Wilt Chamberlain – 4 games in 1967-68
Allen Iverson – 3 games in 2004-05; Tyrese Maxey and Joel Embiid – 3 games in 2023-24
Embiid also had three 50-PT games last season, in 2022-23.
Maxey (52 PTS, 7 AST, 5 REB) joins Allen Iverson (5), Joel Embiid (5), and Wilt Chamberlain (4) as only players with multiple 50+ PTS, 5+ AST, 5+ REB games in Sixers history with the second of his career today.

I swore the game was over when I checked the scores. Insane performance but he did take an insane amount of shots because Embiid was out

Instead of playing the games they should just commit to doing lay-up lines.

This ain’t the place but
Maxey is sus, he can’t win without embiid and I don’t think he deserves max money

Hard to win with Mo Bamba as your starting Center and Tobias Harris as your 2nd option.
Embiid can definitely carry a team better than Maxey but I do think Maxey would of won more by himself if a team was built around him with some size.

Maxey is officially a superstar, glad they didn’t trade him for Dame. He’s better than Dame right now. You put him on the Bucks instead of Dame and the Bucks win it all.

You rarely see a Maxey shot attempt from any spot get blocked. I believe he may may be a special kind of balanced between high IQ and Speed to the rack. My God can he get to the rim fast.
