George left early Saturday's win in Chicago with a finger injury one game after scoring 30 in Friday’s victory over the NBA-leading Cleveland Cavaliers.

Tyrese Maxey singles out Kelly Oubre Jr. for his work on the floor to help the Philadelphia 76ers succeed and move forward.

Maxey logged 31 points (12-23 FG, 5-13 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, nine assists, one block and two steals across 43 minutes during Saturday's 109-97 victory over Chicago. Maxey has been on a roll of late and has been one of the most productive players in the NBA over the last few weeks,

The Sixers had even fewer bodies by the end of their Saturday night contest against the Bulls than they did when they entered The Windy City.

Was it the Orlando Magic defense? Was he feeling ill? He says it was neither, but he struggled to score in the key moments late.

The 76ers squared off with the Bulls in the second game of their latest back-to-back. Joel Embiid remained out.

Continues to roll in win

Tyrese Maxey and the short-handed version of the Philadelphia 76ers put up a serious fight, but they fall short to the Milwaukee Bucks.

Tyrese Maxey had 31 points and nine assists, Kelly Oubre Jr. added 22 points and 12 rebounds and the Philadelphia 76ers beat the Chicago Bulls 109-97 on Saturday night for their second straight victory.

At no point in the budding career of Tyrese Maxey has he been more consistent, and proof of that came on Saturday night when Maxey scored a game high 31 points in a 109-97 win over the Chicago Bulls. It was Philadelphia's second straight victory, and Maxey's tenth consecutive game with at least 25 points.

The Sixers hung with the Cavs all night, and eventually, were able to walk away with an upset 132-129 win. Tyrese Maxey (29) and Paul George (30) combined for 59 points on the night to lead Philadelphia to a win it needed badly to end a 7-game losing skid.
