Tyrese Maxey's 31 Points Ignite Sixers' Play-In Triumph—Can They Shock the Celtics Next?

The Philadelphia 76ers showcased some serious grit and determination Wednesday night, with Tyrese Maxey lighting up the scoreboard for 31 points while V.J. Edgecombe powered through with 19 points and 11 rebounds. Now, this wasn’t just any win — they overcame the tough absence of Joel Embiid, who’s sidelined after an emergency appendectomy, to clinch the No. 7 seed in the Eastern Conference playoffs by defeating the Orlando Magic 109-97. The victory propels the Sixers into their first-round match-up against Boston this Sunday — a series already buzzing with anticipation. Meanwhile, the Magic still have a shot at the playoffs, set to face off against Charlotte for a chance at the No. 8 seed. Over in Inglewood, the Golden State Warriors staged one heck of a fourth-quarter comeback, with Stephen Curry pouring in 27 of his 35 points in the second half and Al Horford nailing four threes to edge out the Clippers 126-121 in the play-in tournament — keeping their playoff dreams very much alive. It’s a wild ride as Curry, Draymond Green, and the squad chase another postseason berth despite a rocky regular season. Bucks up, warriors! LEARN MORE
