Another successful year for the NBA Rivals week!

The Sixers were crushed by the Nuggets Tuesday night thanks to one of their worst defensive efforts of the season. Denver shot 61.2% as they cruised to a 144-109 win.

This is Philadelphia’s seventh loss in a row. They are 15-27.

Tyrese Maxey led all scorers with 28 points and like most stars in this game, didn’t play the fourth quarter. He shot 11-of-21 from the field and 3-of-10 from the field and also finished with 10 assists.

After missing the last two games, Paul George had 11 points shooting 5-of-11 from the field, he did not score in the second half.
