After missing this morning’s shooataround and popping up on the injury report with an illness, Tyrese Maxey has been cleared to play for Game 2 Monday night. Philadelphia has to feel a sigh of relief after Maxey led all scorers with 33 points.
Twenty-one of those points came in the second half as well, picking up the scoring burden after Joel Embiid tweaked his knee in the second quarter. Embiid had 11 points in the second half, shooting just 2-of-11 from the field while looking unable to attack the basket.
