The Tyrese Maxey Foundation turkey drive gave away 1,000 meals two years ago and 2,000 meals last year. This year, it's 3,000.
Tyrese Maxey's goal for the future?
"Just keep feeding families, man. Just keep making people happy."

Sixers injury report vs the Raptors on Saturday (1st of b2b)
Jared McCain is listed as AVAILABLE. Joel Embiid is not listed at all — certainly looks like they'll use him Saturday's game instead of Sunday's.
Dominick Barlow (elbow) and Paul George (knee) remain out.

BIG injury report development from the Sixers for Tuesday vs. Bulls... Jared McCain (thumb and knee surgeries) is now PROBABLE to play!
This would be McCain's first game since Dec. 13, 2024 👀

Not sure what exactly what was drawn up in the timeout... but just inexcusable for the Sixers to not even get a shot up in the last 3.5 seconds (Embiid's was after the horn)...
ZERO idea what Quentin Grimes was doing here. Brutal.

One more clip of Adem Bona last night. This is his go-ahead bucket late in OT. Such a simple but smart play.
Bona sets a screen at the logo for Maxey then immediately TRAILS HIM all the way to the rim, which puts him in the perfect position for the put-back dunk. Beautiful.

Pay close attention to the wording here - "some teams expect" "potential" "could"... This is just the chatter among other teams, nothing more yet.

Sixers' Joel Embiid has been in touch with Pacers' Tyrese Haliburton throughout the playoffs, encouraging him to keep shooting. Hali credits Embiid and Jayson Tatum for helping him develop a tough skin to outside opinions.

Double-A ball. Same game, same inning, same pitch count, same pitch speed, same hit, same bounce, same play. Top and bottom of 4th 🤯

Nets beat the Pelicans tonight. This is looking all but locked in for the Sixers NBA draft lottery positioning.
Philadelphia ending in 5th (no ties) means a 63.9% chance to hold on to their pick (protected 1-6) and a 10.5% chance at first overall.

Sixers draft lottery update: Things holding steady as the season inches toward a close. Would take some unexpected game results to threaten this order…
5. PHI vs. Heat, 7:30, only relevant game tonight
(You can keep an eye on the score while you watch the NCAA final instead)

“There was some tension there between Joel Embiid and that front office … The [Sixers] believed he needed to play at some points in the season, that he needed to get his conditioning right through playing and getting better that way. He felt like he needed surgery.”
