Edwards, 21, often keeps his responses short and sweet. But after nearly swinging a nationally-televised playoff rematch against the New York Knicks in the Sixers' direction on Wednesday night, he provided a telling glimpse into his mental journey over the last few months.
The 76ers faced the Cavs for the final time this regular season. Joel Embiid and Evan Mobley were both inactive.
Here are observations on the Sixers' win over the Bulls: Neither team scored until a George baseline jumper at the 9:51 mark of the first quarter. He was still flowing after his 21-point second half the night before in the Sixers’ win over the Cavs, posting seven of the Sixers’ first 11 points.
The 2024-25 season has not gone as planned for the Philadelphia 76ers. Their Big 3 of Joel Embiid, Paul George, and Tyrese Maxey have played only 10 games together--finishing only seven of those games--as injuries have decimated the roster.
Tyrese Maxey admitted that this season has not been fun. The 76ers star is still trying to focus on staying positive.
In a theme that has become all too common this season, the Philadelphia 76ers found themselves vastly shorthanded in their game against the OKC Thunder Tuesday.
Paul George and Tyrese Maxey combined for 59 points as the Philadelphia 76ers snapped a seven-game losing streak with a 132-129 upset of the league-leading Cleveland Cavaliers on Friday.
Tyrese Maxey and the Sixers avoided an embarrassing outcome as they were shorthanded against the New York Knicks, but they ended up with a familiar result, taking another loss, which occurred in overtime.
Edwards racked up 25 points (9-16 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six rebounds, four assists and one steal over 35 minutes during Tuesday's 118-102 loss to Oklahoma City.
Tyrese Maxey and Darius Garland, two of the top young point guards in the Eastern Conference, faced off on Friday night. The Sixers snapped their seven-game losing streak in the most impressive way possible, outlasting the Cavaliers and their NBA-best record Friday night 132-129.
The Sixers faced some adversity in this one, as they often have this season, but grind their way to second consecutive victory taking down the Chicago Bulls on Saturday night.
