Maxey scored 30 points to lead the Philadelphia 76ers past the Sacramento Kings 117-104 for their fourth straight victory.

The Kings built a 12-point lead in the third quarter, but the Sixers were able to turn things around and were able to walk away with an impressive 117-104 win for their fourth straight. Tyrese Maxey had 30 points and eight assists to get the job done for Philadelphia on a night it had to dig deep in order to get the job done.

Tyrese Maxey followed his stellar game against the Lakers with a 30-point outing as the still-shorthanded Sixers pulled away for the win.

Outside of the off-court noise, the Kings are still a very capable team. Domantas Sabonis remains one of the best bigs in the NBA, and will have plenty of room and size to work with against the short (handed) Sixers. Outside of the Fox-Sabonis duo, they have plenty of scoring options with DeMar DeRozan, Malik Monk and Keegan Murray.
