The Philadelphia 76ers are now 4-0 on the season. This is after a fourth-quarter rally helped the 76ers defeat the Washington Wizards 139-134 in overtime to stay unbeaten.

The 76ers trailed by 19 points in the third quarter but that doesn’t matter when you have Tyrese Maxey on your team. Maxey has been on a tear so far in the season, scoring 40, 28, and 43 points in the 76ers’ first three games of the season.

Against the Wizards, Maxey dropped 39 more points and added 10 assists. He also saw help from former MVP, Joel Embiid, who scored 25 points and added seven rebounds and five assists.

The 76ers appear to be a strong team, but it is still early in the season. Anything can happen.
