The Sixers welcome the Indiana Pacers to South Philly on Martin Luther King Jr. Day. on Monday night between Eastern Conference foes.

The Sixers come into this one riding the news that Tyrese Maxey has been named an Eastern Conference All-Star starter.

The Sixers jumped out to an early 33-30 advantage after the first quarter after effective scoring from inside the arc. The Sixers were led in the first by none other than Joel Embiid and Maxey. Embiid poured in 10 points, shooting a perfect 5-for-5 from the floor. Maxey put 11 on his board. The Pacers were spearheaded by Joel Embiid’s teammate Pascal Siakam who scored nine points.

The Sixers held their own in the second quarter, scoring just 17 points in the period. The Pacers went to the break leading 55-50 led by Andrew Nembhard and Siakam.

He leads the Sixers with 21 points going into the fourth quarter. The Sixers took a narrow 82-81 advantage into the final frame. TJ McConnell, who once played for the Sixers, was a thorn in the side of the Sixers as they led by 10 points after three.

Now for your Bell Ringer.

Tyrese Maxey: 29 points, 8 assists, 8 steals, 12 of 24 from the field

Maxey set a career high with eight steals this season. Maxey became the second Sixer player in history to score 25 points, eight assists and eight steals, and the first since Allen Iverson in 2003. Maxey is also the first Sixers guard since Iverson 16 years ago to be named an NBA All-Star starter. The new Sixers All-Star starter was a nightmare to stop from getting to the line this time. Maxey poured in 14 of his 29 points in the final period to extend the Sixers lead and pull away for the win.

Joel Embiid: 30 points, 9 rebounds, 4 assists, 10-for-17 from the field, 9-for-10 from the foul line

Embiid continues to show that he is still one of the greatest big men in the game of basketball. This marked 14 consecutive 20+ games from Embiid, which Sixers fans have seen in years. Embiid started this one by knocking down his first five attempts from the field and, after a quiet second quarter, got rolling again in the 2nd quarter to help carry the Sixers to victory.
