Maxey Out 3 Weeks: 76ers Face Tough Pistons Test

Philadelphia 76ers All-Star guard Tyrese Maxey has been sidelined with a tendon injury in his right pinkie finger. He is expected to miss a minimum of three weeks, a significant blow as the team vies for a playoff spot in the Eastern Conference. The 76ers currently hold the No. 8 seed but face pressure from closely trailing teams.

Compounding Maxey's absence, Paul George remains suspended, and Joel Embiid is out with an oblique injury for Thursday night's matchup. Consequently, the 76ers are 14.5-point road underdogs against the top-seeded Detroit Pistons, who boast a strong home record.
