Tyrese Maxey and the Philadelphia 76ers lose embarrassingly to Victor Wembanyama, Dylan Harper and the San Antonio Spurs, 131-91. The Sixers trailed by 25 at halftime and as many as 49 points in the third quarter to put the game out of reach in a dominant victory for the visiting Spurs. 76ers' rookie VJ Edgecombe left the game with lower back soreness and did not return for the second half after taking a scary fall. Maxey led Philadelphia with 21, while Harper and Devin Vassell paced San Antonio with 22 each. The Sixers face the Utah Jazz on Wednesday on the second night of a back-to-back. The PHLY Sixers team reacts to the blowout loss.
