Los Angeles Lakers at Philadelphia 76ers
· National Basketball AssociationTyrese Maxey scores 43 to lift 76ers past LeBron, Lakers 118-104
Last season’s NBA Most Improved Player, Maxey continued his recent hot scoring streak as he tries to keep the Sixers within striking distance of the play-in tournament. Maxey had averaged 30.4 points over the last 10 games and he blew past the mark in the third quarter, finishing with 41 headed into the fourth.
Maxey hit four 3-pointers and made 15 of 26 shots overall from the floor. He extended his career-best streak of 25-point games to 11 straight to the delight of a handful of NFC champion Eagles who sat courtside.
LeBron James scored 31 points for the Lakers. Anthony Davis left the Lakers without a key cog when he was forced out in the first half with an abdominal muscle strain.
76ers: Led by Maxey, the Sixers scored 48 points in the second quarter to pull away and open a six-game homestand on a high note.
