Tyrese Maxey scored 27 points and Philadelphia overturned a second-half deficit to beat the Indiana Pacers 114–109 on October 28 in Indianapolis.
The 76ers outscored Indiana 39–21 in the fourth quarter, according to the league’s final linescore. Maxey made two late three-pointers, with the second giving Philadelphia a 112–106 advantage with 46 seconds remaining, the Associated Press reported.
Joel Embiid contributed 21 points and 11 rebounds. Jaylen Brown finished with 20 points and 10 rebounds, Anfernee Simons scored 20 off the bench, and LeBron James had 13 points and 10 assists.
Field Level Media reported that Simons helped ignite the fourth-quarter turnaround as Philadelphia scored 26 of the period’s first 34 points. The 76ers recovered from a 13-point deficit after Indiana had taken control with two major third-quarter runs.
The victory improved Philadelphia’s record to 4–1. Indiana lost its second consecutive game, with Pascal Siakam leading the Pacers with 26 points and 11 rebounds before fouling out late. Andrew Nembhard recorded 18 points and 14 assists after returning from neck soreness.
Indiana was without Tyrese Haliburton because of a left hamstring strain. Coach Rick Carlisle said he expected the guard to miss at least two weeks, according to AP. That timetable is the coach’s assessment, rather than a confirmed return date.
