Tyrese Maxey Exits 76ers Preseason Game with Thumb Injury

The Philadelphia 76ers face injury challenges as Tyrese Maxey joins Joel Embiid and Paul George on the team's growing list of injured players.

Tyrese Maxey left the Sixers' preseason game against the Orlando Magic with a right thumb contusion after just five minutes on the court.
The injury was deemed precautionary, with reports suggesting Maxey's exit was to avoid further risk.
Maxey's injury adds to the Sixers' preseason woes, as Joel Embiid and Paul George are also sidelined due to knee issues.
Philadelphia's preseason has been marred by injuries, with rookie Jared McCain also suffering a lung bruise earlier this week.
The Sixers are set to start their regular season against the Milwaukee Bucks, with hopes that Maxey will be ready to return.
