Kelly Oubre Jr. and the Philadelphia 76ers make a statement about who they really are after a win over the Los Angeles Lakers.

The 76ers still think Joel Embiid, who’s played in just 13 games this season, is a franchise-level player. “We’re still really happy with Joel,” 76ers majority owner Josh Harris told The Athletic

Oubre contributed 15 points (6-12 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-3 FT), six rebounds, three assists and four steals over 37 minutes during Wednesday's 117-104 win over Sacramento.

Coach Nick Nurse gives a ton of praise to Philadelphia 76ers forward Kelly Oubre Jr. for the progress he has made.

Tyrese Maxey followed his stellar game against the Lakers with a 30-point outing as the still-shorthanded Sixers pulled away for the win.

NBA rumors suggest the Philadelphia 76ers may explore trades as Joel Embiid's injury fuels speculation about becoming sellers.

Maxey scored 43 points for the Sixers, who again played without All-Stars Joel Embiid and Paul George among others.

Oubre had just hit two free throws with 55.3 seconds remaining to finish off a fourth consecutive victory for the Sixers, who erased a 12-point second-half deficit to top the Sacramento Kings, 117-104, Wednesday night at the Wells Fargo Center.

Last summer, the Philadelphia 76ers signed Paul George in free agency, validating their decision to prioritize cap room during an era in which few stars have changed teams that way. Franchise player Joel Embiid signed a three-year extension and cornerstone Tyrese Maxey signed a five-year max contract.

Philadelphia's 4-game winning streak has sparked a glimmer of hope, proving it might be starting to figure things out.

Tyrese Maxey supplied 30 points and eight assists to guide the host Philadelphia 76ers to their fourth straight win, a 117-104 victory over the Sacramento Kings on Wednesday.
