Joel Embiid was out, leading to Victor Wembanyama's historic game stats. He became the only player in NBA history to achieve 30+ PTS, 15+ REB, 5+ AST, 5+ 3PT, and 5+ BLK in a single game. But Tyrse Maxey stole the show for Philadephia with a career-high 52 points, securing a double-overtime victory.
The 76ers are on a five-game winning streak, now the No. 7 seed in the East standings. With only one game behind Indiana at No. 6, they have a chance to skip the play-ins. The competition in the East is intense heading into the final weeks of the regular season.
