It's hard to top Giannis Antetokounmpo dressing up like a 6'11" minion, Tyrese Maxey becoming Allen Iverson, or Josh Allen and Hailee Steinfeld paying homage to The Waterboy, but Halloween night being on a Friday means it likely won't be surprising if sports fans are treated to plenty more costumes as the weekend continues.

Paul Pierce says that the current Sixers team, with Tyrese Maxey at the helm, reminds him of Dwyane Wade and the title-winning 2006 Miami Heat squad.

The Philadelphia 76ers are the feel-good story of the young NBA season. The depression of Joel Embiid's real-time demise and the buyer's remorse on Paul George's contract have been pushed into the shadows as the league's most electric young backcourt has stepped into the spotlight.

The way the Sixers have played this season (and the wins) are fresh and exciting, but a seismic shift isn't for the best.

With an average of 37.5 points over the first four games, Maxey is playing at a level that is almost exclusively the domain of basketball’s greatest individual scorers.

Maxey was a big catalyst for the comeback. He had 39 points--23 in the fourth quarter and overtime--as he spearheaded the effort for the Sixers. He played 47 minutes in a Herculean effort as he played 42 minutes just the night before. The All-Star guard certainly put on a show for the fans.

Tyrese Maxey scored 39 points with 10 assists, and the Sixers stormed back with Joel Embiid on the bench, beating the Wizards 139-134 in overtime to remain unbeaten.

Tyrese Maxey and VJ Edgecombe have combined for 186 points, the most by a starting backcourt in a team's first three games of a season since 1970-71.

Brooklyn Nets head coach Jordi Fernandez made an interesting move by playing Tyrese Martin down the stretch of close games. Fernandez explained why.
