76ers Defeat Kings 117-104, Extend Winning Streak to Four

The Philadelphia 76ers secured their fourth consecutive victory by defeating the Sacramento Kings 117-104, with Tyrese Maxey leading the way with 30 points and eight assists. The Sixers, missing stars Joel Embiid and Paul George, received solid contributions from Kelly Oubre Jr. and Eric Gordon, while the Kings struggled despite all five starters scoring in double figures, with Malik Monk leading with 21 points. Sacramento's loss was compounded by trade rumors surrounding point guard De'Aaron Fox, who confirmed the team is listening to offers for him ahead of the upcoming trade deadline. Kings interim coach Doug Christie addressed the team's challenges, emphasizing the importance of maintaining focus amidst the uncertainty. The Kings have now lost three of their last four games, and their road trip continues against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Meanwhile, the Sixers are looking to extend their winning streak as they navigate a five-game homestand.
