Sixers lose Maxey for two weeks after finger sprain

Tyrese Maxey will be out for at least the next two games after the Philadelphia 76ers confirmed he suffered a sprain to the fifth finger on his right hand. The team announced that the guard will undergo further tests and medical evaluations in the coming days to determine the most appropriate treatment plan. Additional updates are expected once the Sixers complete their upcoming two‑game stretch. 

Maxey has been a driving force for Philadelphia this season, averaging 29.0 points, 6.7 assists and 4.1 rebounds across 61 appearances. His absence comes at a delicate moment for a team sitting at 34‑28 and fighting to maintain playoff positioning in a crowded Eastern Conference. 

While the injury is not expected to be long‑term, the Sixers will need to navigate the immediate future without their most dynamic scorer and playmaker, hoping he returns swiftly as the postseason push intensifies.
