PHILADELPHIA — – Tyrese Maxey<\/a> scored 43 points, including eight straight during a crucial fourth-quarter stretch, and rookie VJ Edgecombe<\/a> added 26 points as the Philadelphia 76ers<\/a> beat the Orlando Magic<\/a> 136-124 without Joel Embiid<\/a> to improve to 3-0.<\/p>\n

Embiid, the 2023 MVP and two-time scoring champ, was sidelined to rest his surgically repaired left knee. After playing in just 19 games last season, Embiid played the first two with a restriction of 20 minutes.<\/p>\n

Philadelphia did just fine without its star center. Maxey followed a 3-pointer with a driving basket with just over a minute left that gave the 76ers a comfortable 12-point advantage. He is averaging 37.0 points per game. Edgecombe, the No. 3 pick in the NBA draft, continues to impress and has 75 points through three games. Kelly Oubre Jr<\/a>. contributed 25 points.<\/p>\n

Paolo Banchero<\/a> had 32 points to pace the Magic, who opened a five-game, 10-day trip with their third consecutive loss. Desmond Bane<\/a> chipped in with 24 points and Franz Wagner<\/a> added 22.<\/p>\n

The Sixers’ Andre Drummond<\/a> finished with six rebounds, becoming the 32nd player in NBA history to record at least 11,000 rebounds.<\/p>\n

Anthony Black<\/a> drained a three-quarter-court shot at the third-quarter buzzer to pull the Magic within 101-94.<\/p>\n

Up next<\/p>\n

Magic: At Detroit on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

76ers: At Washington on Tuesday.<\/p>\n
