The Philadelphia 76ers will be moving on.
With their 109-97 takedown Wednesday, April 15 over the Orlando Magic in the Play-In Tournament, the Sixers have secured the No. 7 seed in the NBA Playoffs and a date with the No. 2 Boston Celtics.
In the final minute, as the home crowd felt the victory coming on, they chanted “We want Boston” over and over.
With center Joel Embiid sidelined as he recovers from an appendectomy, the 76ers got a massive game from All-Star point guard Tyrese Maxey, who scored 31 points on 11-of-25 shooting, adding 6 assists.
Philadelphia had five players in double figures, while the offense was an issue for the Magic.
