Tyrese Maxey, Tobias Harris help 76ers beat Magic 112-92 without Embiid

Tyrese Maxey, Tobias Harris and De’Anthony Melton each scored 22 points to help the Sixers to a 112-92 victory over the Orlando Magic.

DECEMBER 28, 2023

Strong showing in Wednesday's win Harris chipped in 22 points (10-23 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT), seven rebounds, two assists and one steal in 33 minutes during Wednesday's 112-92 victory over the Magic.

Impact With Joel Embiid (ankle) sidelined, Harris topped 20 points for the third straight game, although unlike the prior two performances his production wasn't fueled by a big night from beyond the arc. Harris has scored 20-plus four times in 12 December games but also stumbled to 10 or less four times, and on the month the veteran forward is averaging 15.5 points, 6.2 boards, 3.3 assists, 1.5 threes and 1.2 steals.

Balanced showing as top scorer Harries finished with 27 points (10-18 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 3-3 FT), seven rebounds, six assists and one steal over 42 minutes in Monday's 119-113 loss to Miami.

Impact Harris led all 76ers in scoring and assists to go along with a team-high-tying rebound total in an all-around showing on Christmas Day. Harris has tallied 25 or more points in three games this year, including in two straight contests. He has posted at least five rebounds and five assists in three outings for Philadelphia.

Erupts for season-high 33 Harris closed with a season-high 33 points (12-23 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 4-4 FT), eight rebounds, seven assists and one steal across 38 minutes during Friday's 121-111 win over the Raptors.

Impact The veteran forward tied Tyrese Maxey for the team scoring lead on the night, while Joel Embiid also delivered 31 points -- and no one Sixer reached double digits. Harris had stumbled to just 12 points over the prior two games, and Friday's outing was just the second time in the last 14 games he's scored more than 20, a stretch in which he's averaging 13.4 points, 5.7 boards, 2.9 assists, 1.0 threes and 0.9 steals.

Held to three points Harris amassed three points (1-3 FG, 1-1 3Pt), five rebounds, two assists and three blocks over 32 minutes during Monday's 108-104 loss to Chicago.

Impact You could argue that this was Harris' worst performance of the season, and this was his third game of the campaign in which he was held to single-digit points. Despite shooting the ball well in December, his production has been lacking with 11.9 points, 5.9 rebounds, 2.6 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.0 three-pointers in his last eight games.

Hits for 21 against former club Harris racked up 21 points (7-10 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), seven rebounds, one assist and one block across 26 minutes during Wednesday's 129-111 win over Detroit.

Impact It wasn't exactly a revenge game -- the Pistons were just the third of five teams Harris has played for in his 13-season NBA career, after all -- but the veteran forward topped 20 points for the first time since Nov. 21 in a solid performance. Harris remains a strong complementary option behind Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey in the Sixers' offense, and his scoring numbers could improve if he finds his rhythm from three-point range, as his 33.8 percent shooting from beyond the arc would be his lowest mark since 2015-16.

Scores 10 points in easy win Harris ended with 10 points (2-5 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 5-6 FT), four rebounds and six assists in 30 minutes during Monday's 146-101 victory over the Wizards.

Impact The 76ers raced away with this game, matching their season-best mark of 146 points which also happened against the Wizards on Nov. 6. Harris, however, has been stuck in a slump. Over his past six games, he's averaging a mere 10.5 points, 5.3 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.2 steals while shooting 39.3 percent from the field.

DECEMBER 12, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Strong defensive effort in loss Harris finished with 14 points (6-16 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 1-3 FT), five rebounds, three assists and four steals in 38 minutes during Friday's 125-119 loss to the Celtics.

Impact Even with Joel Embiid (illness) and Tyrese Maxey (illness) out of the lineup, Harris didn't see a large increase in his usage, but he did produce a season high in steals. The veteran forward has failed to scored in double digits only once all season, and over the last 12 games Harris is averaging 17.3 points, 5.8 boards, 2.7 assists, 0.9 threes and 0.8 steals.

Quiet despite huge win Harris closed with eight points (3-12 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and five rebounds in 23 minutes during Monday's 138-94 win over the Lakers.

Impact Harris was outscored by seven of his teammates on a night where Philadelphia canned 47.8 percent of 46 three-point attempts en route to 138 points. Monday marked Harris' lowest scoring game of the season and just his second contest with fewer than 15 points through the 76ers' first 17 games. Harris is shooting a career-best 52.7 percent from the field and is a bounce-back candidate Wednesday against New Orleans.

Productive in OT loss Harris posted 23 points (7-13 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 6-6 FT), two rebounds, two assists and two steals across 43 minutes during Tuesday's 122-119 overtime loss to the Cavaliers.

Impact Harris ascended to operate as Philadelphia's third offensive option with Kelly Oubre (ribs) sidelined, and the veteran forward has embraced the role to perfection. Harris has surpassed the 20-point mark in three of his last five appearances and is averaging 20.0 points while shooting an impressive 54.7 percent from the field in that stretch.

Best game of season Friday Harris racked up 29 points (12-20 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds, four assists and one steal across 38 minutes during Friday's 126-116 win over the Hawks.

Impact Harris notched a season-high mark in scoring and recorded his second double-double of the campaign, so it's safe to say this was his best performance by a wide margin. Harris has settled as the third-best option on offense behind Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey, and he has been playing well of late after scoring 20 or more points in three of his last five contests.

Good to go Wednesday Harris (neck) is probable for Wednesday's game against the Celtics, Austin Krell of USA Today reports.

Impact Harris sustained a neck injury during Tuesday's game against the Pacers but was probable ahead of Wednesday's matchup. He'll officially be able to suit up and could see increased playing time if Joel Embiid (hip) -- who is a game-time decision -- is ruled out.

Probable for Wednesday Harris is probable for Wednesday's game against Boston due to neck pain.

Impact Harris suffered the injury Tuesday against Indiana and was evaluated for a concussion before ultimately returning to the game. Assuming he gets the green light, Harris could have a larger role in the offense Wednesday with Joel Embiid (hip) considered questionable.

Near double-double in win Harris recorded 18 points (9-20 FG, 0-3 3Pt), nine rebounds and four assists over 36 minutes in Sunday's 137-126 win over the Pacers.

Impact His 18-point performance was silent compared to the 50-point performance by Tyrese Maxey and 37-point double-double by Joel Embiid, but Harris still managed to be productive and had the second-best point differential on the team (plus-12) behind Maxey. Harris is cemented as the third option behind Embiid and Maxey, but he's averaging a respectable 19.9 points per game early in the year, which is his highest mark since the 2018-19 season when he played for the Clippers. He'll be an important piece for the 76ers on nights when Maxey and/or Embiid are having an off game.

Provides spark in paint in victory Harris recorded 17 points (5-12 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 6-6 FT), nine rebounds and three assists in 38 minutes during Wednesday's 106-103 victory over Boston.

Impact Harris boosted the 76ers in the paint against the Celtics alongside Joel Embiid, finishing as one of four players with a double-digit point total while ending one rebound shy of a double-double. Harris has tallied at least 15 points and five rebounds in six of his seven appearances so far this season.

Another day at the office Harris produced 18 points (6-11 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 6-6 FT), five rebounds, five assists and one steal over 31 minutes during Monday's 146-128 win over Washington.

Impact Posting his second consecutive 18-point game and exceeding 15 points in all six of Philadelphia's contests thus far, Harris' scoring consistency as the 76ers' third option is fully on display. His efficiency has been off the charts this season, shooting 63.2/40.0/85.7 in 36.0 minutes per game.
