Maxey Leads as 76ers Extend Winning Streak in LA

The Philadelphia 76ers continued their impressive surge with a convincing 128–113 road victory over the Los Angeles Clippers, stretching their winning streak to four games as the hosts once again played without James Harden.

Philadelphia set the tone early, racing into a strong first-quarter lead behind the scoring punch of Tyrese Maxey. The guard delivered a standout performance, controlling the tempo and punishing the Clippers’ defence from range to give the 76ers a commanding halftime advantage.

Dominick Barlow produced one of the best games of his young career, providing energy and physical presence in the paint, while Joel Embiid added his usual authority to keep Los Angeles at arm’s length throughout the contest. The visitors’ balance on both ends of the floor proved decisive as they dictated the pace and execution.

The Clippers, missing Harden for a second straight game, struggled to find rhythm despite a solid outing from Kawhi Leonard. Although Los Angeles showed brief signs of a comeback, defensive lapses and turnovers allowed Philadelphia to maintain control and close out the win comfortably.

The result further boosts the 76ers’ confidence as they build momentum during a demanding stretch of the season, while the Clippers are left searching for stability amid uncertainty surrounding Harden’s continued absence.
