Given that the Philadelphia 76ers easily defeated the New Zealand Breakers by 55 points in their preseason game, bookmakers didn’t hold out much hope for the Breakers. Even though it was just a preseason game, 76ers fans are super excited to see their team moving in the right direction before the main season kicks off.
The New Zealand Breakers had a challenging game after their recent matchup with the Jazz. Despite their strong start in the first half against the Jazz, the outcome fell short of their expectations.
Fans hoped for at least a similar effort against the Philadelphia 76ers, but the outcome was more disappointing. The 76ers dominated every quarter, delivering a crushing defeat at the Wells Fargo Centre.
From the start, the three-time NBA champion showcased aggressive offense and solid defense. Tyrese Maxey shined, scoring 15 points in the first quarter, making it difficult for the Breakers to keep up.
Andre Drummond also scored 11 points and seven rebounds, including an exciting early three-pointer that fired up the crowd. All these stats came out without having Joel Embid on the roster, which is more fascinating.
For the 76ers, this blowout victory is a promising start to their preseason campaign. They will continue their preseason schedule with a game against the Minnesota Timberwolves on 12 October, where they aim to build on this momentum and further fine-tune their strategies.

One of the standout moments that had fans talking was Tyrese Maxey’s explosive start. The team recently shared a video showcasing Tyrese Maxey’s highlights. Fans are already calling it an MVP performance.
