The Philadelphia 76ers lose Game 2 against the New York Knicks despite Maxey’s injury due to a late turnover.
Tyrese Maxey, feeling unwell with body aches and chills during the game in New York, nearly propelled the Philadelphia 76ers to victory with a remarkable fourth-quarter display. Despite his discomfort, he showcased a strong performance. However, a critical error on his part—a turnover—allowed Donte DiVincenzo to secure a crucial 3-pointer for the New York Knicks, leading them to a 104-101 win and a 2-0 series lead.
Despite his illness, Maxey’s game was exceptional, tallying 35 points, 10 assists, and nine rebounds. He disclosed his illness, which had persisted since Sunday night but was determined to take the court.
Maxey initiated the game impressively, notching nine points with three consecutive 3-pointers. His momentum carried into the fourth quarter, where he added 15 points, granting the Sixers a 100-96 advantage with just over a minute remaining.
However, Maxey’s pivotal turnover allowed the Knicks to stage a comeback. With the score at 101-99 in favor of the Sixers, Maxey mishandled an inbound pass, resulting in a turnover that led to a Knicks’ 3-pointer.
Despite the opportunity to reclaim the lead, Maxey’s drive to the basket was thwarted on the subsequent possession. He acknowledged his mistake but remained resolute in bouncing back for the next game.
Despite Maxey’s strong showing in the series, the Sixers find themselves trailing. Maxey stressed the importance of shifting focus to the next game and devising a strategy to secure a win on their home court.
