The Philadelphia 76ers secured a 109-103 victory against the Washington Wizards, improving their record to 15-20 while the Wizards fell to 6-29. Tyrese Maxey was the standout performer, scoring 29 points, with 21 of them coming in the second half. His coach, Nick Nurse, noted Maxey’s struggle in the first half but praised his significant contributions late in the game.

Guerschon Yabusele also played a crucial role, adding 21 points and making five three-pointers. Despite a 15-point lead in the fourth quarter, the Sixers nearly let the game slip away, but Maxey’s late layup and Yabusele’s block helped secure the win.
