Maxey Leads 76ers Past Raptors, Box Score Stats, Highlights for Embiid, Top Players with LeBron Out

The Philadelphia 76ers were without LeBron James on Thursday night due to lower back/sciatica management. It didn't keep Philly from picking up its 10th win of the season.

The Sixers overcame the absence of James and a slow start, beating the Toronto Raptors 123-112.

Here's a look at the game's key performers:

Player	PTS	REB	AST	BLK	STL
Tyrese Maxey (PHI)	27	2	8	1	2
Joel Embiid (PHI)	20	4	3	2	1
Jaylen Brown (PHI)	18	6	2	1	2
Anfernee Simons (PHI)	17	3	2	0	0
VJ Edgecombe (PHI)	15	8	8	1	3
Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (PHI)	11	4	5	1	1
Jabari Walker (PHI)	9	8	1	0	0
Dean Wade (PHI)	6	5	2	0	0
RJ Barrett (TOR)	31	14	5	0	0
Immanuel Quickley (TOR)	26	4	6	1	1
Collin Murray-Boyles (TOR)	14	0	4	5	1
Jamison Battle (TOR)	13	1	1	1	1
Jakob Poeltl (TOR)	9	5	3	0	1
Ja'Kobe Walter (TOR)	6	5	0	0	1

Philly got off to a rough start, finding themselves in a 32-16 hole in the first quarter. But the Sixers answered with a 15-0 run to get back into the game, outscored Toronto by a 36-27 margin in both the second and third quarters each and ultimately pulled away from Toronto.

As usual, Tyrese Maxey led the Sixers' star-studded offense, though it was truly a balanced affair from the starting unit:

It didn't hurt that Anfernee Simons, Jabari Walker and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope shot a combined 9-for-13 from three off the bench.

It all spoiled a fantastic night from RJ Barrett, who had to pick up the slack with no Scottie Barnes or Kawhi Leonard in the lineup and did his part.

But it wasn't enough to get past the 10-3 Sixers, who continue to impress early in the 2026-27 season. Up next for Philly is a Sunday showdown against the Indiana Pacers.

The Raptors (5-7) will lick their wounds after a third straight loss, hoping to end the streak against the New York Knicks on Sunday.
