In the latest news on the Philadelphia 76ers, the team has taken a 3-0 lead over the Brooklyn Nets in their NBA playoff series. The 76ers’ star player, Joel Embiid, narrowly avoided ejection during Game 3 after kicking Nets’ player Nic Claxton, but was able to stay in the game and help secure the win. James Harden, one of the Nets’ key players, was not so lucky, as he was ejected from Game 3 after committing a flagrant foul.
Despite the win, the 76ers’ head coach Doc Rivers knows that they cannot get complacent. In a recent article on Fox Sports, Rivers emphasized the importance of taking things “one game at a time”. The team will look to continue their strong performance in Game 4 against the Nets.
One of the keys to the 76ers’ success has been the play of rookie Tyrese Maxey. As reported by Sixers Wire, Maxey received praise from Harden after Game 3. Maxey has been a major contributor off the bench for the 76ers, and his strong play has helped the team stay competitive even when their starters are on the bench.
The 76ers’ performance in the playoffs so far has been impressive, and they will look to continue their winning streak in the coming games. They will face off against the Nets again in Game 4 on June 15th. Fans can catch the game on various channels, as reported by Sporting News, and can stay tuned to news outlets like CBS Sports and Sports Illustrated for further updates on the team’s performance.
