Tyrese Maxey scores 28 on high volume in loss
by Bruno Mulé | 76ers Correspondent | Fri, Feb 20th 9:44am EST
Maxey needed 23 field goal attempts to reach 28 points Thursday but went perfect from the line on eight tries to lead Philadelphia in scoring with Joel Embiid sidelined. He shot 8-of-23 overall and 4-of-11 from three-point range while adding three rebounds, three assists, one steal, one block and four three-pointers in the loss to Atlanta.
Fantasy Impact:
The free-throw efficiency salvaged what would've been a rougher scoring night given the 34.8 percent field goal percentage. Maxey shouldered the primary scoring load in Embiid's absence. Philadelphia faces a back-to-back weekend with games against the Pelicans on Saturday and Timberwolves on Sunday.
