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 has a message for the youngsters on the Philadelphia 76ers following a loss to the Milwaukee Bucks.

As the Sixers' disastrous season only gets tougher, they must ensure their young star point guard carries a reasonable workload.

The 76ers reached the halfway point of their 2024-25 season, facing the team they began their season against, the Bucks.

Maxey did it all for Philadelphia offensively in Sunday's contest, lighting it up from deep while leading all players in scoring and assists while hauling in a team-high-tying rebound total in a balanced showcase.

The Sixers’ depth has been minimal in recent days. The team’s three players on two-way contracts were the three men to check in off the bench Sunday night. Nance logged 24 minutes and had eight points on 3-for-9 shooting and six rebounds.

The Sixers dropped their sixth in a row on Sunday, running out of answers in the fourth quarter against the Milwaukee Bucks despite Tyrese Maxey's best efforts.

Giannis Antetokounmpo had 34 points and 15 rebounds to help the Milwaukee Bucks beat the short-handed Philadelphia 76ers 123-109 on Sunday night.
