Tyrese Maxey credits Joel Embiid for beating Allen Iverson

The Philadelphia 76ers defeated the Miami Heat 124-117 on Thursday night. In the win, Maxey led all Sixers players with 28 points, although was a poor 9 of 25 from the floor. Nevertheless, the 76ers guard made history by surpassing Allen Iverson for most triples made in franchise history.

Entering the game, he had made 882 triples in his career, three less than Iverson. He knocked down five of them in the win, making 5 of 12 from deep, including four in the first quarter.

After the win, Maxey shared his thoughts on surpassing Iverson.

“Honestly, it’s just a blessing. I’m so happy, man. I’m blessed,” Maxi said humbly.

“I thank God. I thank the 76ers organization for preparing me, trusting me and believing in me… I’m grateful to my coaches, Doc [Rivers], [Nick] Nurse, she gave me a lot of confidence.

“Last but not least are my teammates, man. Everyone… I yelled to Tobias. [Harris] First. My freshman year, he told me I was a great shooter, even though I wasn’t shooting as well as I wanted to. Finally, Joel [Embiid]. He had been thinking about me shooting 10 threes a game since my sophomore or sophomore year. I appreciate.”

After a few relatively steady years in Philadelphia, Maxey has taken off like a rocket this season. He is averaging better than 29 points per game, which is good enough for fourth in the NBA. But he has become more than just a lethal scorer.

The 76ers guard averages nearly seven assists, four rebounds and, perhaps most impressively, two steals per game.

Tyrese Maxey passes Allen Iverson for most 3-pointers in franchise history

The Philadelphia 76ers take on the Miami Heat on Thursday. During the contest, star guard Tyrese Maxey made franchise history by surpassing one of Allen Iverson’s team records.

After scoring a three-pointer at the end of the first quarter, Maxey surpassed Iverson’s three-pointer record for the 76ers. Iverson initially set the record with 885 three-pointers during his time in Philadelphia.

“Tyreese Maxey passes Allen Iverson for most 3-point field goals in 76ers history.”

Maxi will have the opportunity to continue adding to his franchise record. Especially considering that the six-year veteran signed a five-year, $204 million contract through the summer of 2024. That deal locks him in Philadelphia through the 2028-29 campaign.

The 25-year-old guard has emerged as a superstar in Philadelphia since joining the club in 2020. He ultimately had a breakout year in the 2023–24 campaign, earning the Most Improved Player of the Year award for his efforts.

Tyrese Maxey continues to play at a high level, as he entered Thursday’s game averaging 29.1 points, 4.1 rebounds, 6.7 assists and 2.0 steals per game, while shooting 46.7% from the field and 37.5% from beyond the three-point line. His performances this season earned him the second All-Star award of his career.

Maxi broke Iverson’s record which was set in the 2009–10 season. It took almost 16 years to break that franchise record. Tyrese Maxey was able to surpass Allen Iverson’s three-point record in just six seasons, while it took the 76ers legend just over 10 seasons to reach 885 three-pointers. However, the game has changed significantly since then, as players shoot more threes than ever before.

2001 年 ECF 重聚之夜,喬爾·恩比德 (Joel Embiid) 在阿倫·艾弗森 (Allen Iverson) 面前狂砍 40 分

週六晚上,費城 76 人隊對陣新奧爾良鵜鶘隊的比賽中,喬爾·恩比德在阿倫·艾弗森面前展現了統治力。

恩比德在 76 人隊的職業生涯已進入第 12 個賽季,這也是他作為現役球員的第 10 個年頭。繼 2000 年代初期的艾弗森時代之後,他幫助球隊度過了現代最好的時光。

說到艾弗森,這位球隊傳奇人物以及令人難忘的 2000-01 賽季陣容都到場了。費城專門舉辦了一場活動來慶祝艾弗森和當年的球隊,他們進入了 2001 年 NBA 總決賽,並在第一場比賽中取得了標誌性的勝利,擊敗了洛杉磯湖人隊。艾弗森還在那個賽季獲得了 MVP 獎,進一步增強了他在社區中的傳奇地位的吸引力。

恩比德確保他的表現能讓艾弗森和他的團隊自豪地見證。在上場39分鐘的時間裡,他得到40分、11個籃板、4次助攻、2次蓋帽和1次搶斷。他全場27投13中,其中三分線外5投3中,罰球線14投11中。這是他本賽季第一場拿下40分的比賽。

喬爾·恩比德為阿倫·艾弗森和球隊帶來了2001年特別的夜晚,帶領76人隊以124-114戰勝鵜鶘隊,這是一場精彩的表演。

兩隊在比賽的大部分時間裡都表現得很有競爭力,整個晚上都在交換三分球。儘管如此,費城隊在第二節仍表現出色,以 36-21 擊敗新奧爾良隊。事實證明,這就是差異,主隊取得了勝利。

費城隊有五名球員在這場胜利中得分上雙,其中包括恩比德。小凱利·烏布雷 (Kelly Oubre Jr.) 也拿下 19 分、10 個籃板和 4 次助攻。他總共13投7中,其中在市中心7投3中,在慈善地帶4投2中。泰瑞斯·馬克西(Tyrese Maxey)拿下18分和8次助攻,VJ埃奇科姆(VJ Edgecombe)貢獻15分和5次助攻,賈里德·麥凱恩(Jared McCain)貢獻12分和2個籃板。

費城隊本賽季戰績提高到27勝21負,在東部聯盟積分榜上排名第六。他們比奧蘭多魔術隊高出1.5個勝場,比邁阿密熱火隊高出2個勝場。然而,他們落後克利夫蘭騎士隊和多倫多猛龍隊一場。

76人隊取得三連勝,期待下一場比賽。他們將於美國東部時間 2 月 2 日晚上 10 點迎戰洛杉磯快船隊。
