Maxey fouls out on questionable call in OT, Embiid-less Sixers drop third straight vs. Hawks

This was the worst meltdown against the Hawks in franchise history. The Sixers dropped their third in a row, falling 139-132 in Atlanta Wednesday night. Tyrese Maxey had 13 fourth-quarter points on his way to a 35-point night before fouling out in overtime.

While Joel Embiid remained sidelined, Tobias Harris and De’Anthony Melton both returned to the lineup. Harris had 32 points, shooting 12-of-24 from the field while pulling down 10 rebounds.

Trae Young led the Hawks with 28 points while Dejounte Murray and Jalen Johnson each finished with 25.

Here are some thoughts at the buzzer.
