Despite Guerschon Yabusele in career high mode, the Sixers continue to plunge into the Eastern Conference. 14th defeat in 17 games for Philly, falling last night at the end of the suspense against the Rockets of a Jalen Green on fire.
The days go by and look the same for the Sixers. Weighed down by injuries to Joel Embiid and Paul George, Philly cannot get its head above water. Tyrese Maxey gave everything again this night with 39 points (including 28 in the second half) and 10 assists but that was not enough to defeat the increasingly regular and eye-catching Rockets. In his pistoleros duel, Maxey had a hard time facing a simply hot Jalen Green (41 points).
Forced to take a very large number of shots, Tyrese was at least able to count on the contribution of Guerschon Yabusele in attack. The Frenchman achieved his new NBA career record in scoring with 22 units. His 8 points in the second quarter coincided with the start of the Sixers’ comeback. This is the second time this season that Yabu’ has reached the 20-point mark. He also adds 7 rebounds and super marksmanship. 58% overall and a very clean 4/6 by far. The only regret from this evening, apart from the defeat, was a percentage of throws which will leave some regrets, especially in a meeting which was not decided by much. For the rest, big shots, versatility, a smile when driving his opponents into the racket. All good, and now let’s hope for him that it will soon result in victories on the scoreboard…
