Tyrese Maxey Likely To Return On Saturday
10 months agoPhiladelphia 76ers guard Tyrese Maxey (illness) is listed as probable for Saturday's matchup with Washington. The All-Star wasn't feeling well on Friday night, so he wasn't in the lineup for the loss to Atlanta. Newly acquired Cameron Payne got the start in that one and had a fantastic debut with his new team, ending with 20 points, six assists, and two steals. Unfortunately, it appears Payne's streaming window was only open for a game, although he could remain a regular part of the rotation, at least until De'Anthony Melton (back) returns. Additionally, with Maxey likely back in the lineup, Tobias Harris, Kelly Oubre Jr., and Buddy Hield, shouldn't see as many scoring opportunities.
