Tyrese Maxey followed his stellar game against the Lakers with a 30-point outing as the still-shorthanded Sixers pulled away for the win.

With their hard-earned victory on Wednesday, a 117-104 triumph over the Sacramento Kings, the Sixers are suddenly winners of four straight games and will likely finish the night tied for a Play-In Tournament spot in the Eastern Conference.

Don’t look now but the Sixers have swept consecutive back-to-backs and tied a season high with their fourth straight win over the Kings Wednesday.

Tyrese Maxey supplied 30 points and eight assists to guide the host Philadelphia 76ers to their fourth straight win, a 117-104 victory over the Sacramento Kings on Wednesday.

Nuggets star Nikola Jokic recorded his 19th triple-double of the season with 27 points, 13 rebounds, and 11 assists. Tyrese Maxey led all scorers with 28.

It required a full team effort, but the shorthanded Sixers defeated the recently newsworthy Sacramento Kings. One former Kentucky guard outshined the other — can you guess which one?

The Kings built a 12-point lead in the third quarter, but the Sixers were able to turn things around and were able to walk away with an impressive 117-104 win for their fourth straight. Tyrese Maxey had 30 points and eight assists to get the job done for Philadelphia on a night it had to dig deep in order to get the job done.

With the Philadelphia 76ers trailing the Sacramento Kings 80-68 in the third quarter, coach Nick Nurse turned to a 3-guard lineup. Nurse has been favoring the combination of Kyle Lowry and Reggie Jackson off the bench as of late and turned to the two proven veterans on Wednesday to join Tyrese Maxey out on the floor.

Eric Gordon and Kelly Oubre added 15 each. Tyrese Maxey had 29/6 on the night, but shot just 11-27 from the field, including 3-14 from 3. The Sixers improved to 15-20 on the season. Next up ...

Oubre had just hit two free throws with 55.3 seconds remaining to finish off a fourth consecutive victory for the Sixers, who erased a 12-point second-half deficit to top the Sacramento Kings, 117-104, Wednesday night at the Wells Fargo Center.
