Philadelphia 76ers All-Star Tyrese Maxey is expected to miss a couple of weeks because of a right hamstring injury, sources told ESPN on Thursday.
A full evaluation coming later Thursday but the team is bracing for Maxey's absence. The Sixers will take a careful approach to the injury.
Maxey has been battling soreness in his hamstring for a period of time, wanting to play through the injury and keep the team afloat while All-Stars Joel Embiid and Paul George were sidelined, sources said.
But Maxey exited Wednesday's loss against the LA Clippers due to the injury.
