Philadelphia 76ers All-Star Tyrese Maxey will be sitting out the next two games due to a sprain in his right fifth finger. The injury occurred during Saturday’s game against the Hawks, where Maxey managed to score 31 points before exiting the game. Further testing will be done to determine his return timeline.
Maxey’s absence will be felt on the court, as he has been averaging 29.0 points per game and 6.7 assists per game this season. The Sixers, currently seeded 8th in the Eastern Conference with a record of 34-29, will need to adjust their lineup in his absence as they aim to secure a higher playoff seed.
