Maxey, Edgecombe - Philadelphia backcourt duo

Basketball

Philadelphia introduced George during the offseason last season and was considered by the media to be a popular team in the Eastern Conference. However, the entire team was plagued by injuries. Neither Embiid nor George performed at their true level, and their record plummeted. They were called the most disappointing team last season.

Entering the new season, Philadelphia has a completely new look. With Embiid recovering, time is controlling, and George has not yet recovered from his injury, under the leadership of Maxey and rookie Edgecombe in the backcourt, they have won three consecutive victories and wiped out the decline of last season.

The team not only has a present but also a future.

In the three-game season, Philadelphia first reversed the Celtics by one point in an away game, and then won two home games against the Hornets and Magic respectively.

The first core of the team, Maxi performed extremely well.

As the leading star in the post-Embid era, Philadelphia has become Maxi's team.

Averaged 41.5 minutes per game in three games, averaging 37 points, 4 rebounds and 8 assists per game.

35 of 76 shots, 46% shooting rate, 15 of 29 three-pointers, 51% shooting rate, highly productive and efficient.

At the same time, he can get 10 free throws per game, making 26 of 30 free throws, with a free throw shooting rate of 86.7%.

Maxi's unreasonable pullback for a three-pointer

Maxi not only has excellent shooting performance, breaks through to cause damage, and has comprehensive passing performance, he is a well-deserved All-Star performance in Philadelphia.

Another surprise for the team is rookie Edgecombe. In his first game, he broke James' first-quarter rookie scoring record.

After three games, it is not obvious that he is a rookie in his first year of playing, but a very mature core of the team.

In three games, he averaged 40 minutes per game, averaging 25 points, 6 rebounds, 6 assists and 1.67 steals per game, with perfect performance on both offense and defense. 29 of 58 shots, 50% shooting rate, 8 of 20 three-pointers, 40% shooting rate, no blind spots in the offense.

There is no doubt that he is the best rookie in the league so far. If he can continue to maintain his current performance, he may even have a chance to become an All-Star in the first year of his career.

and he also became the first rookie in history to score 25+5+5 in the first three games.

also became the first rookie in the new century to score 75 points in the first three games.

Edgecomb defeated Banqueiro with a three-pointer.

He is creating his own future.

The performance of Maxey and Edgecombe has allowed the team to find new ideas for team building and build a new platform around the double guns in the backcourt.

The pair averaged 62 points, 10 rebounds and 14 assists in the first three games.

Philadelphia has reason to believe that this young pair of Ma Ai will create new waves in the league.
