Daily News | Sixers vs. Bulls takeaways: Tyrese Maxey back in a groove; Another opponent rains threes; P.J. Tucker absent again in the fourth quarter
But opposing standout guards have exploited the 76ers’ perimeter defense since his return. And P.J. Tucker isn’t closing out games.This marked the shooting guard’s fourth game back since being sidelined with a fractured left foot. And it was by far his best performance since his return, finishing with a team-high of 26 points while making 5 of 7 three-pointers. Maxey also had six assists, one steal, and a turnover in 36 minutes, 34 seconds.
