A big reason for the Sixers being able to turn things around a bit is the role players stepping up to help Tyrese Maxey get the job done. Eric Gordon, especially, has been fantastic. After shooting only 27.

Tyrese Maxey had 31 points and nine assists, Kelly Oubre Jr. added 22 points and 12 rebounds and the Philadelphia 76ers beat the Chicago Bulls 109-97 on Saturday night for their second straight victory.

Maxey's scoring prowess has kept the Sixers afloat all season. He recently joined Wilt Chamberlain, Allen Iverson, and Joel Embiid as the only Sixers to score 28 points or more in 11 straight games.
